I'm in central AZ (Prescott) and I'll admit so far this fall I have totally wussed out! I the days are plenty nice but unfortunately that's when I need to be at work. Trying to figure out something where I can get my miles in without riding in the dark or freezing my butt off too much....I must get it together and /or HTFU soon and this is NOT optional, as I am planning to ride the Iron Horse classic next year which ain't gonna be a walk in the park. Can't exactly lay off all winter and expect to be ready for a ride of that magnitude. Watching this thread with interest....already know I need to drop some cash for the following at minimum:
Leg warmers. Shoe covers. Full gloves. Some kind of wind breaker jacket thing.
