Last winter I rode across I-10, Houston to El Paso, and almost froze my rather ample posterior right off in the wee hours of the morning. I was wearing a stitch with an electric vest. At about 4:00 AM, the temp was down about 35 degrees. After shivering to sleep in a hotel room at 5:00 AM, I decided 35 f was a bit too cold for casual touring.
I have this friend who lives in the great white north and I told him about how I froze that February night. He suggested I should toss the stitch and buy a suit by Arctic Armor. (No, I don't work for Arctic Armor.) My buddy says he rides his atv out onto frozen lakes to fish for 8-10 hours wearing his Arctic Armor suit . He says a man wearing the suit will actually float should he break through the ice.
I realize the above suit probably would not do well when meeting asphalt at 70 mph but at least you'd be warm before that point. The price really isn't all that bad at $330. No, I haven't bought on yet, but it sure would be nice to have the freedom to travel during the winter months.
