I am constantly amazed at how little I need to wear to be comfortable on a bike in the winter. I have a Foxwear Evap coat that appears to be pretty thin, but it and a T shirt is all I need to be comfy. Any more layers and I am just sweating like crazy. Over dressing is easy to do and not very helpful!

Just because it is 2F outside doesn't mean your body isn't sweating. My ride is only about 20 to 30 minutes so I drink liquids before I leave the house and then rehydrate when I get to my office. I will easily down a 24 oz bottle of water in the next half hour. I've read in various places that guzzling down the liquids isn't very healthy so I just take a few large swigs every few minutes... don't know if it realy matters, but this works well. I'll drink an other 24 oz bottle of watter by lunch time, and usually finish an other 24 oz bottle by the time I go home. I've had kidney stones in the past so I make sure I stay very well hydrated.

Happy riding,
André
