This reminded me of a Swiss chap I used to ride with. Here in N. California, winters are cold and wet, although it seldom goes below freezing. Still, we're talking about a wet mid to high 30's. We also have fairly large mountains with long descents so wind-chill factor is very significant. This Swiss chap routinely did our rides in cotton T- shirts and shorts. It didn't matter if the rest of us with 4 layers couldn't feel our face after descending 2000 feet in one go; when asked, this chap would nonchalantly say "Oh yes, it's a little chilly" and then move on. Some people are just marine mammals in human form. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
