This morning's (coldest I was referring to in above post) went well. Toes a bit cold, legs a bit cold (base layer, not wind blocking), but my hands were very warm and sweating a bit on the last part. My upper body started to sweat a bit too early into the ride but I'll take that. With my gloves I could not get to my zipper to vent my outer layer but I know I could have pulled over and easily taken care of that. I brought a small sack type backpack so I could put a layer or two in it on the way home. I'm driving into work tomorrow and could easily leave my stuff in my office but I'm going to practice for times when I may commute two days in a row. Additionally I don't want to leave something at work and then realize I need it part way home.
Summary
- It went well but my feet won't be able to handle much colder, or windier.
- Legs may need some wind block.
