Never fear wear with pride

I know a former biker that used to stuff his clothes with newspaper to keep warm...I think that's preferable ;) To be honest I'd sooner fill mine with razor blades and angry bees than wear those :D

Was his name Russel?:chuckle:
Keeping warm back in the day was an art, a couple of copies of a broad sheet newspaper across the chest helped, when my hands were frozen, I would stop and put my gloves on top of the engine.

I might have used a pair of leg warmers over my trousers when I used to use a bike to commute 'back in the day' (shakes head)

Used to stuff a motor market weekly opened and inside the front of my jacket on long runs home when it was chilly
