Thanks! It was nippy out.. but the only thing that got cold was my hands. I was wearing riding boots with wool socks, my regular jacket with like 4 layers under that, and jeans with 2 pairs of long underwear haha!

My regular full face helmet kept my head & face warm just fine. Also gloves.. they were regular winter gloves... but couldn't take the 80mph winds.. so maybe I need some heated grips.

lol it was 27 the other day where i live and ive been wearing the same stuff i always wear. my leather racing gloves with the reinforced knuckle, my helmet, jeans, leather boots, and my icon field armor, and my hoodie. its not that cold as long as you remember to warm your hands up every so often on the crankcase or on the fairing vents.

i took the hand warming advice from a repsol cbr i saw the other day. the chinese dude was stickin his hands all over the hot spots on his bike and i wondered why... so i played monkey see monkey do and now my hands stay warm all the time! Voila! heated hands!

Nice to see Wisconsin. I visited there a few years ago and have very fond memories of the place.

Wow very nice you were in Wisconsin. I hear that the landscape looks much like that of Europe. Would you agree?
