chills
Hey all...here in the southern hemisphere it's winter...on a cold morning I can ride to work, no probs- it's 4 degrees C (fahrenheit about 38 maybe?) but i always cop a chill while waiting for an elevator from the basement car park at work, to the showers. Its about 5 minutes only- but I always suffer a bad chill. I wear a bandana to avoid heat loss from the noggin...it helps but not enough !! any ideas?

Re: chills
Maybe carry an additional light layer that you can put on when you get off the bike? If you carry a rain jacket, maybe you could use that?

However I'm not sure why you are geting a chill in 5 minutes standing still. I usually find I am so rugged up in the cold to protect aganst the 20mph headwinds coming at me on the ride... that being stationary for 5 minutes afterwards in no wind is not usually a problem. The air doesn't even come into contact with the inner layer. Are you wearing enough layers to start with?

Re: chills
I can't wear too may layers as i will get too warm on the ride! what I wear is fine for riding. I dont have a thermal, i go cheap and just wear a cotton T-shirt under the jersey, of course i use arm & leg-warmers. I seem to lose a lot of heat (i.e. i feel cold) from the torso and neck especially...I might carry a hoodie (hooded jacket) that I will throw on to avoid the chill... last week our elevators were Kaput so I had to walk outside and then into the front of the building...felt the chill much worse then :-(
BTW matagi... I follow St Kilda, cant wait for next sundays match- should be a good one :-)))
