Staying Warm On Cold Motorcycle Rides

As older motorcycle riders, we're more sensitive to colder weather than we were when we were younger. Being cold on a ride is not only miserable, it's dangerous. In this video I'll tell you what kinds of gear I use to stay warm on my motorcycle, including my Alpinestars jacket, my Sidi boots, a cheap heated vest from Costco, and more. I'll also talk about my helmet and goggles, which have become somewhat of a hot topic here on the channel. Finally, I'll also touch on setting limits as far as riding in low temperatures. Even if you think those roads aren't icy, it's best to play it safe. Trust me. Mentioned in this video: 🥼 Alpinestars Bogota Pro jacket 🧤 Alpinestars Andes v3 Drystar Gloves 👖 REV'IT!
