I was pretty happy yesterday with cloudy, windy, and damp temps in the 30s. Smartwool thin longsleeve base, Joneswares thick wool longsleeve jersey over that (covers your neck too) and a Showers Pass jacket on top (thanks to a fellow list member). The only cold part after 2 1/2 hrs of ride was one foot (not the other interestingly) so I deduced that one shoe was laced too tightly while the other allowed enough airspace to insulate properly (wore Costco wool socks)

The standard cold weather equation is a warm, wicking base layer, an insulating layer and then a wind/waterproof shell. Even hardcore synthetics fans would agree that wool makes a good base or mid layer, but most would swear by GoreTex and its descendants for the outer layer. What do you wear on top in the cold and/or wet? -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
