A bit like 'what worked and what didn't' thread but went for a ride yesterday in chilly post-frost weather, put on one of those puffy down filled jackets under my leather jacket - should have done it years ago, no draughts and toasty-warm, I recommend!
Not sure if I would advise it if you're going to get wet though.

Or a fleece lined Techno-Flex vest on the outside. It's waterfroof as well as an extra layer of insulation.
If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

What a disappointment - when I saw the title to the thread I had thought women were involved...I've always found that's the best way to get a warm tip.
My leathers are quite a snug fit - I use the old Scottish technique of dressing in layers when cold...2 cotton T shirts 1 woollen slim jumper under my leather jacket.
I can see the benefits of your technique though Scumdog.
Mind you I've not experienced anything colder than 3 below since I got here (was once out on a mountain in Scotland in minus 33 - 2 cotton tees, 1 slim woolen jumper, 1 Arran knit woolen jumper, Ski-Jacket and gore tex over jacket was the combo I chose on that fine day)
In space, no one can smell your fart.

Yeah it is a good idea, but doing ANY form of exercise (walking, breathing) off your bike and you'll end up drenched in sweat. Not. Cool.

I did also have on a thick t-shirt, black chunky jersey, sleeveless denim jacket then the down jacket and leather jacket - and a polarfleece muff around my neck and my acknowledgement it was winter - a full-face helmet.

I make waterproof/windproof vests for only 1 dollar, in a range of colours as long as its black.
Ask Quasi he thinks they are the shizz!
Was thinking of getting a proper vest for over the toothpaste tube though, what about oilskin?
