-32 wind chill and acca rides. . .

But now I have some hand protectors. Check out these puppies. 12 degrees + 80 MPH = -32 old index or - 19 new index. My iPod shuts off if I don't have it plugged in. Thank goodness for heated jackets and grips.

Nice. Your little Beamer is all set up. I've never ridden one but have to ask:

Do the cylinders ever get in the way?


BTW- You're nuts for riding out there.

[accadacca]

Nah they don't get in the way. They are right in front of your foot pegs. The ergonomics and balance on these bike is truly amazing. It rides/feels like a bike 200 lbs less in weight. As for the cold. . .it is always nice to hop on a bike after work to ride home rather than a car or truck.

Man that is hard core! Forget to zip the fly and you'll have frostbite.

You don't lift one back upright like they are 200 lbs less....

(Acca has never dropped his - just clarifying for him...)

The hand warmers looks like your gloves frozen in place
