I learned that corduroy pants are like wearing towels on each leg and got totally drenched. Duh.
BEER!
No, seriously, screw winter coats in sleet. I wish I'd worn my windbreak/rain jacket with some layers underneath. I might be a bit cold, BUT AT LEAST I'D BE DRY!
Now - TIME FOR BEER (and possibly science)!
BEER!
Tried ski goggles on Sunday, to keep my eyes from watering in the cold wind. Worked like a charm and helped keep my face warm, to boot. They're cheapos -- I maybe spent $20 -- made to be worn over eyeglasses (look for "OTG" on the box). Bought 'em last year for a misguided ski-vacation catastrophe that my wife will hold over my head for the rest of my life.
I also have a Pro Velocity shell, for which I was gouged $80 at a runner's boutique store -- but haven't regretted buying in the slightest. It extended my riding season by at least a month. I love the pit-zippers that help vent out the heat once I get warmed up.
