Finally we have some snow to ride in!
I spent I don’t know how much time agonizing over what to wear on my winter commute, and I think I’ve got a pretty good system going now, so here it is:
Head: ski helmet & goggles OR hat under bike helmet
Torso: tshirt under sweatshirt under rain jacket
Legs: Taku pants from REI
Feet: waterproof Keens OR waterproof hiking boots
Pedals: Crank Brothers 50/50 XX Pedals (took off Time ATAC clipless pedals)
Dry Bag: Xtracycle Dry Bag
This system has kept me warm and dry so far. I keep ‘regular’ pants in my desk at work in case I don’t feel like wearing my Takus all day. Often I just wear the Takus all day, though, because they’re sexy.
