HTFU PDX , like Here on the Coast is Only cold for a few Days , then in the winter it warms up a bit, clouds over and Rains .
..See my multiple rain cape posts ..

the ones for Straight MTB bars , are probably more functional than the Ones that restrict You to riding the hoods on Drop Bars ..

I agree Mittens or Lobster [ Zoidberg ] gloves where each finger is sharing the heat of at least 1 other is the way to Go ..


Zzipper road fairings were a good thing when I had a hour long Commute, the cool air went around rather than thru what I wore for clothing.
