As the south east is now in the grips of an Arctic-like winter, the commute to work has become a battle between wearing enough clothes and looking like the michelham man!
Last winter I treated myself to a decent winter jacket and a number of different undershirts, whilst this kept my torso fairly toasty, my lack of a decent set of gloves left me unable to use my hands until at least lunchtime (even when wearing two pairs)...not any more!
Normally, I am loathe to spend a lot of money on cycling apparel, however on a recent trip to Evans bike shop, I got caught up in the spirit of Xmas shopping and splashed out a massive £35 on a pair made by Sealskinz.
Money well spent?? ABSO-BLOODY-LUTLY!!
Lovely toasty hands all the way to work - although that did mean I was able to use a pen at 9am and be productive!; maybe I will 'forget' my gloves a few days a week from now on.
Now just to work out how to stop icicles forming on my nose.....
