>>>> My husband and I rode at South Mountain State Park today. It was 38 degrees and very windy. I was cozy. I have one of those winter riding suits from Dunne and Krumm.
It wasn't my body or my feet that were cold. I wore layers of light polarfleece and had on my insulated Ariats, so I was fine. The part that kills me is the face burn, and the burning eyes. I just haven't found anything to help that, and it gets worse as I get older. I also get dehydrated easily in the windy weather, and I don't want to drink much when it's so cold. I made myself drink a very big cup of hot tea before I went out - I think coffee dehydrates me too much. And, I was sure to drink a good bit when I came back in. That helped, but my cheeks are still burning, and my eyes too. Anyone have any ideas for helping the burning eyes? I don't think I'll try putting Desitin in my eyes! Karen Thomas [EMAIL PROTECTED]
