Snow Pants

[ashman]

the temp is really dropping out here in the South so I figured my jeans just arnt going to cut it for cold weather riding. I stopped by a sporting goods store and found some snow pants, dunno why they had them because it doesnt snow here. Anyway, on my ride back it was about 50 degrees and I COULDNT FEEL THE SLIGHTEST DRAFT!!! My legs were sooo toasty, I even took it up to 100 and still perfect. My god I wish I had found these sooner.  Before I'd wear fleece long johns under my jeans, this is 40X better.
Thank you snow pants!!!!

50?  Hell, that's T-shirt weather!

10 and dropping rapidly here.

Might give it a try though, along w/ heated pants.  My leathers are fully perf'd.  Cooooold!

50 but getting down to 28 later tonight, a front just came thru. For the Gulf Coast anything in the teens or low 20's is about as cold as it gets.

Yeah, if they work for going down a hill at 30mph in subzero temps, why not on the bike above freezing?  I've used them before on the bike they do keep you warm. 

PS, it was -2*F here yesterday morning with a -15* or so windchill

If it's downtown or if you come downtown, just stay in the skyways, you never have to go outside for anything!

And there's always the off chance of a heat wave... it was up to 40 when I moved here in January last year.  I'm hoping for the same when I move again next month

We are staying at the Days Inn near the University, I have no idea how close that is to anything.  I know the ladies want to head to the Mall of America and that is 'south'.

[manofthefield]

Hmm... not downtown, but pretty close.  I don't know the U of M area very well, but Coll0412 probably does.  Mall of America is probably a 15-20 min drive south.  Impressive to see once or twice but I'd rather go shopping somewhere else.
