Three cheers for the sunshine!

Finally!!  After what seems like a month of rain and cold miserable weather, the sun has finally decided to show itself!  But I see the writing on the wall, I can see my little scoot is probably going to be setting in the garage or covered most of the winter.  I just don't know if I can hack the cold weather mornings!  When you have to scrape the frost off of your helmet then it might be time to cut back some.  But if I were to drive in the winter, I think I might want to pick up a few of these articles.  Never know, Santa might be listening!

  1. Jacket, something European, how about one from Armadillo Scootwear?  This looks like one sweet jacket, looks good and has the protection you need.  My current jacket is very nice for summer (Fieldsheer Mesh), but even with the windbreaker liner in and a regular jacket, its not very warm.
  2. Gloves, from Corazzo.  Same thing as the jacket, looks and protection and warmth!  If you can't guess by now, all of my gear is warm weather gloves.  My current gloves have nice vents in the knuckle area which you can not feel until it turns cold.  Time for some more warmth.
  3. Pants, still like my jeans but I think an extra layer of long johns would be perfect for short jaunts to work and back.
  4. Boots, mine are still some decent hiking boots that I bought on the cheap at the local Wally World (I really hate to admit that) so I guess I will stick with them.  I did wear my Nikes today, they are the mesh kind and wow it was cool!
  5. Finally, I am ecstatic over finding this...under helmet mask.  This is perfect!!!  I have a modular helmet and wind loves blowing under it.  
Eventually I will post more about my current  gear, complete with model shot of someone else other than me wearing it!!!  Be warm all everyone, I will try to post  more about cold weather driving and my impressions soon.  See you later!
