    Left work at 8am to find the bike *white* with thick frost.

    So, in no particular order, heated grips, heated seat and heated tank :(

    Baglux, YKIMS.

    I had to ride mine without the cover on at the weekend, and was amazed
    at how cold the tank felt.

    Though on a hot summers day , a freshly filled fuel tank can provide
    pleasant cooling to the nether regions

    Chaps. And perhaps a G-string, for the easily-embarressed.

    That was your excuse when someone checked to see if you had underwear on?

    I had the Gerbing inner jacket and the gloves plugged in tonight riding
    up from Dublin. Excellent they were! I switched them off a couple of
    times just to see how cold it was. Brrrrrrrr!!!

    Fecking wuss. I left home at 5am on Thursday morning when there was a
    relatively hard covering of frost. Rode the 100 miles to the airport
    (without bar-muffs 'cos they wouldn't fit on the 1100 without applying
    the front brake) in about 1:15 and arrived with hands that were a little
    cold... summer gloves hadn't helped.

    Inner gloves make the plot too tight and even colder, usually.
    Dainese Assuan gloves or good thermal gloves inside water/wind proof
    mitts.

    It's not my fault. It's the position of the celestial bodies and wot
    not. And the fact they put the ground station the other side of the
    world. Now who's bright idea was that eh?
