i'm really getting in the swing of riding this winter. 12F is the coldest it's been so far, and that was no problem. the more you do it, the better you can fine tune your clothing. that's 99% of cycling in the winter - just figuring out what works and what doesn't.

BTW - Does the lens color mean anything? I wanted the pink lensed ones but they were scuffed up somehow, and all the others were heavily tinted (no good for night riding).

Of course, the real benefit on the mbike is that your bare hands (or nearly bare hands) can still work the controls. You dont have that worry on a bbike; 'specially a fg bbike. Getting some big 'ol fat mittens would be just as good.
