This morning I froze myself riding to work. It was like 6-ish a.m. and my were my fingers cold from the low temperatures and the wind. I actually stopped to jam my hands on my belly and warm them.
I was not too pleased to discover that my brand new Endura booties are just too small. I think I need to get the XXL size so they will go over my Keen shoes. I rode without them, so my toes got cold too. Is there anything better?
The biggest deal was my frozen fingers though. Surprisingly, my chest and legs didn't protest that much. And I loved breathing in the crisp cold air. But my fingers ached like crazy.
Suggestions for good brands of gloves, tights and long sleeve jerseys much appreciated.
One more thing about gloves...is it safe (or smart?) to put small packets of chemical hand warmers in my gloves?
Thanks a ton
