Noooooooooooo I get enough gbh for Uster about how great the hot grips are Just started using bar muffs, no icy painful fingers the last couple of days. Don't tell Ulster but they can also be fitted with Hot Handz I reckon with the Hot Handz my hands would have been sweating.

BTW, Ulster did work out the location without insider info, after all it wasn't that hard . Can't spoil the game for him.

Did I pass you around Tawa coming home the other day? I noticed a bike with muffs on, I've used them on farm bikes and quads but always thought they'd be a bit awkward on a road bike. hot grips and something like barkbusters to keep the wind off a bit might be enough for me.

You mean the day I followed you as far as Poplar Ave and you posted the Ihakara St tag? wasn't me
They were cheaper than Rain-offs and do the bark buster job plus the rain-off job. Still undecided on there usefulness but seem no more awkward than the rain-offs so far.

Rauapehu St - Dolphin Showers, we have those from when they were down Kapiti Rd.


Nu 1, I'll try to play along with thumper's theme of business corner shots

Yup, that'd be the day I'm thinking of, I've been using Rain-off's for a couple of years but only when it's wet, work really well if you tuck them inside your cuffs but take a while to get on properly. wishing for an affordable all-in-one glove with goretex or the waterproofing on the outside instead of that hypora rubbish...

Oh yeah... Spotted, should we give Spider a go?

What Spider get up and out early whilst its still cold? More chance of Ulster firing up his heated grips.

(reckon that might fire the two of them up?)

I've been using rain-offs up to now and loved them but the cloth tape patches were starting to come off so I was up for a new pair anyhow. I got quite good at pulling the rain-off cuffs tight, but boy, they hold water well if it does run down your arm pays to have a good water proof jacket too.

Don't mind the cold all that much, haven't had much of a chance to do anything today, sorting out my son's birthday party for this arvo, got 4 extras for a sleep over, so early morning is out. I'm more likely to go out in the cold than out early ☺

Good jacket for sure, I fluked £450 Gore-tex Frank Thomas one for $50 off trademe, I've had a few different jackets but this is the first one I completely trust in any weather. on the lookout for another pair of pants though... Water cooling not too pleasant on man parts

Just remember to wash the jacket once in a while to clean the Gore-tex or the pores clog and stay open letting water through. As to pants my main issue is size, it was easier to find motorcylce grade water proof over trou than to find trou that fit - thanks Motorad for succeeding where others had tried. The pants are meant to be water proof but heard that before and now I have the Weiss overtrou it will have to wait until I am caught out before I find out (hopefully never - yeah right)
