Hands

Gore windstopper gloves and medium weight surgical gloves. (Never again!)
Bout froze my fingers off! Went right down to REI and bought a pair of PI Lobster Gloves!


Conditions

11 degrees (F) (( thats -11.66 (C) )), wind 5 mph. Dark and Clear. Bright Moon! Rode 45minutes. (10 miles)

Notes:
Rode some of the way no hands, tried to put hands under pits for warmth. (didn't work)
fingers were burning from COLD!
Ride home tonight will be much better! Should be about 20 degrees (F) NEW GLOVES!
Rest of body was very comfortable.
