Need advice from cold weather riders
#1
I have no problem keeping my legs and body reasonably warm, but, how the hek do you keep your hands and feet warm. It was 34* with a 20 MPH north wind where I was riding, (which is like a summer day for some of you) and I felt like my hands and feet were numb. When they are miserable, it kinda makes the rest of you miserable. Yes, I did have gloves and workboots on !
What are the secrets ?

Well I don't know what kind of riding that you do but the had warmers that are put on the handle bars are great for the hands. Along with the hand gaurds which will stop the wind from hitting your hands directly. You might also want to think about putting a thumb warmer on your thorottle lever. The thing with the boots, you just have to put on thicker socks.

If all else fails, ride double with your wife & let her drive!
Otherwise heated grips - nice because you can wear thinner gloves for better control - handguards or a fairing would help, too.
For your feet, bigger boots, and double or triple socks. That's why you got a Polaris, so you don't have to worry about getting your toe under the little lever!
Also:
Carharts in general are warm & cut wind well.
