Ooook this michigan Rider hasnt ridden in 'Winter' temps yet... but like 2 weeks ago.....

i got up for work, geared up and let my Bike warm up for bout 10mins. It was 37 degrees outside @ 5:40am (high would later be like 71 LOL)

I rode for like 10.5 - 11 miles one way too work! At varies 55-60 MPH!

By the time i got there, my Hands were pretty Chilled (Warm temp Gloves), but not too bad.

Now my NECK at times (burst of wind) would get alil Chilly. (ill look into getting a Neophrene Ski mask, they have nice coverage of the Whole Head, Neck, etc... too wear under the helmet/jacket coller!

So the Rest of me was nice and Warm!

My Gear i wear is:

Scorpion EXO Hattrick Jacket (RED)

(textile jacket, waterproof, 2 inner liners)

It works Great for 4 seasons, but Are you gonna Ride in 6" of SNOW too work? lol
*Only CON is the neck/coller area allows some Cold air in sometimes, youll need something over your Neck area too Combat this in Cold weather riding!

Scorpion EXO Deuce Riding Pant (black)

(textile pant, waterproof, 1 inner liner)

Scorpion EXO 400 helmet

w/ *Everclear* Visor DOESNT FOG!!!

Alpinestars SP-X sport riding Gloves (RED)

*Carbon fiber Knuckles* Their NOT for Cold temps, LOL

ICON Accelerant Riding Boot (Black)

(Waterproof, anti-slip sole) They Work, Flat out! Their Also pretty comfy, if your walking around for like 2 Hrs, then you feet will start too hurt... but heh

Ive Ridden in a Mass Thunderstorm while on my way too my brothers in Mt. Clemens Mi. I rode in light rain, POURING Rain, Med Rain.... all during a contesnt 40-50min Period! Once i got to his place, and took off my Gear... i was Shocked that i was DRY! no **** ppl. Some areas of my skin was very very very slightly like a pin drop Damp, but i dunno if that was Due too me Riding in Hot weather b4 the T-storm came, but im Very HAPPY with Scorpions Gear so Far!!! Id rec. their stuff and Icons Boots too Anyone!
