I was also thinking that was another option but not brave enough to say it. Time to reminisce and call for 'Sound Off - Take II'? |

Don't be afraid Betty.  Do what you do at home and make the the executive decision. And put your foot down and say it were going here and that's final.  |

Regarding the cold, you just gotta be prepared for it over winter... granted the "snowy" ride was in April, hence being caught by surprised. Here's my check list: - winter gloves - something with gortex / thinsulate etc... - skiers inner gloves - woolen unders - top and especially the bottoms - I use "icebreakers", and they have thumb holes in these sleeves to stop them riding up - neck warmer - silk balaclava - woolen ski socks - jacket with a liner With all that on, I'm cosy but do take on board that I have more inherent insulation than others  Seriously, if you're really adverse to the cold, day long riding in winter may not be for you. |

Hey, some of us might like being soft! Actually, the softness helps with the insulation. |
