Handguards. My latest winter preperation

[seb421]

If you want warm hands the best thing you can do is get thin comfy summer gloves, Heated grips and Bars Muffs

the heat from the grips penetrates the thin summer gloves so much better than thick winter ones and in the wind and rain proof muffs the heat stays their

You can get a full set or 100 quid


My oxford hot grips get very hot to a bare hand, put the hand in a decent winter glove and hardly any of the heat penetrates, try it with a thin summer race type glove and it makes a world of difference

I bet you're going to scorn this but once you've tried it.I put empty plastic bread bags over my thin Summer gloves

But plastic is not 100% breathable or 100% windproof up to 180mph.

you looking to run yours off a cliff to get that speed mate lol

[VTRDark]

No but Gortex is windproof to speeds of 180 But if you add windspeed to the mph you doing going down the motorway it all adds up.

Yep!

Bread bags Why? What about the crumbs? Where would your sandwiches go?

Too many questions, too many unknowns...

[AMCQ46]

if you kept 1 slice of bread in the bag i think it would make a good insulation layer for the back of your hand.........

what if you put some butter on the outside of your leathers and then stuck sliced white onto that, would double as insulation and crash protection.....but you would be chased by seaguls

school boy error that mate, bread is only windproof upto 4mph and water proof up to a teaspoon, so you have to butter BOTH sides and put it inside your leathers for it to take any effect

[agentpineapple]

would hovis bread bags be better than warburtons?.........

[VTRDark]

o you have to butter BOTH sides and put it inside your leathers

Some people around here could also use that to help get leathers on

[tasum]

if you go a stage further by adding a filling of you choice to the buttered bread and then lodge them under your pits, you can arrive safe and warm at your destination with a ready prepared hot meal, genuis

[tony.mon]

How about pittas? Made to slip a cold hand into, surely?

If you get them from the kebab shop fresh each day, mind the salad, though, it' a bit slippery,

[Kev L]

Ask for chilli sauce to keep the temp up.
