Brings back the good old New Brunswick ski-doo days of bundling up...
be careful you dont get too sweaty in your windbreaker
the irony is
you may have been better off without a windbreaker
because the wind cutting through the cotton will speed evaporation
while you are at walmart
look for something like
this
not too pricy
but should help you stay safe and comfortable while riding
also
if you are dressing for riding in nc
the same as you used to dress for snowmobiling in nb
you are dressing incorreclty for riding
