I actually like winter as well...but then I also like the heat in summer...go figure... :bang:
Over the next couple of months will be a couple of swap meets I attend every year, and I always take the motorbike. One is Nambour and the other is Rockhampton...I leave Bundy before 4 in the morning, pretty well rugged up, wearing the following: Jeans, tracksuit pants over the top, woolen socks, leather bike boots, flannellette shirt, leather bike jacket, army jacket over the top of
that, R-Jays' thinsulate-lined leather winter motorbike gloves, neck warmer (like the lower half of a balaclava that comes up to your nose) and ride off with my feet tucked in behind the cylinders of my BMW R65 boxer twin...a toasty warm spot...
...maybe I should fit a fairing so I have something to hide behind...
The only thing is, that with Queensland winters being what they are, if I ride back to Bundy late in the arvo instead of staying somewhere for the night before heading home like either my sister-in-laws in Gympie if I am going south, or my brothers place in Rocky, the day has warmed up so all the extra cold weather stuff is usually stuffing my Gearsack bag full and I wear my thinner summer gloves... :bang:
I shouldn't complain though...real men aren't afraid of frostbite...
