Mike - seriously I have some thermals!!

Nope, KMB i wasn't wearing them that day

But I was wearing them at another recent meet.

Mine are slightly more tasteful than that pair i posted. Grey in colour, and Debenhams, not M&S

Maybe i could model them and post pics!

Edd it's a deal

You could have tried to persuade them that the car was dangerous to the driver as the excessively cold temps were lowering their sperm counts and they could be sued?

(This would probably work in the States)

I find that (1) my right hand gets cold, which can be remedied by holding it in front of the heater vent, (2) the tops of my legs or the bottoms of my legs get cold, depending on which heater setting is selected, which is also not a problem. (3) But the most uncomfortable problem I find is that my nipples get cold! I've bought a new fur lined jacket (synthetic not gorilla or monkey) and haven't tried it yet, so hopefully this will help.

What on earth are you wearing, in order to get a cold crutch?

Might I suggest longish leather jackets/flying jackets & stout jeans? Worked for bikers for decades.

With the Honda mid-vents and a cat under the seat, I cannot say coldness has ever been a problem.

Other than gloveless hands, of course.
