Moderator Cynic Posted March 21, 2014 Moderator Share Posted March 21, 2014 You know sometime is good to be a little bit older.. Riding home last night I stopped alongside a dt. Im a bit fed up with the rain. He had an open face lid, normal clothes, trainers and no gloves. Think he was really pissed by it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator DirtyDT Posted April 10, 2014 Moderator Share Posted April 10, 2014 Nice to see some dry roads this morning. A few bikers out to play on my ride to work so I could give the FZ a bit of a work out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
finnerz89 Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 I've been wearing jeans for the past few days, going for the jacket liner removal today I think Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bippo Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 We've had quite a mild winter this year. Very wet, but mild in comparison to recent years. I stayed in kevlar jeans all throughout it and kept the thermal liner out of my jacket. Just been wearing winter socks (knee high), my jeans, two cycling base layers and bike jacket. Only struggled on a couple of trips where I had to crunch miles on the motorway (over 200) so the wind chill ended up getting to me. Wore a fleece to try and help but it didn't do much in all honesty. Needless to say I'm saving up for a better kit, but for now my collection of basic protection, old cycling gear and light waterproofs have seen me through. Understandably my current bike has more wind protection when compared with my YBR (plus heated grips), but I consider myself lucky this winter! Enjoyed every minute of the weather and hope we have a cracking 2014. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewElvisFan Posted April 10, 2014 Share Posted April 10, 2014 Indeed - excellent weather compared to previous winters. Only had 3 or 4 mornings when the roads were a little slippy. Re kit - there were a couple of days I slipped the elvis onesie on under the leathers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
finnerz89 Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 Yeah I moaned about the wet but it was a hell of a lot better than having to ride in the snow! Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
