Nice combination.

That is a great tip. I have double-socked when it gets cold. Usually a thin pair underneath and a thick boot sock over that. That is about as much as I knew.

I am trying to determine what shoes or boots I want to wear once the temperatures drop. I have been wearing the Muckster II, which have been fine during the milder weather. I am considering the Woody Sport Ankle Boot. That might work out for me when it gets colder here in Minnesota...

Very nice!

Interesting. I am invested in the Ryobi 40 volt ecosystem. Did you build your own e-bike or simply retrofit one to use DeWalt batteries?

These are some great tips. It is still unseasonably nice in the Twin Cities Minnesota area, but that can't last forever.

It was 36° F tonight and much nicer. I wore my Carhartt Force Helmet Liner. While it was warmer than what I wore last night, I think I need to get one that is wind-resistant, first, before I switch helmets. https://www.carhartt.com/product/A267/force-helmet-liner

I did some poking around on-line and read that some people use snowboard helmets while riding their e-bikes. I would like to continue using a headlamp on my e-bike rides, so I want whatever I buy to have the means to attach that.

It was about 18 degrees F last night. The helmet I typically wear, even with a balaclava, was not warm enough. I actually went home and switched to my ATV helmet! Anyway, for those that ride in colder temperatures, what helmets to you like to wear when it is cold outside?

I have thought about that. I had the one-piece snowmobile suits when I was a kid. Maybe a two-piece makes more sense for bicycling, though.

It has been a particularly mild December, but it dropped a bit today.

Minnesota.

I am giving some thought to a warmer jacket or parka for winter rides. For anybody here that wears a parka during cold weather rides, is the length restrictive when pedaling? https://toughduck.com/product/safety-down-filled-parka

That is the very pair of pants that I wore today on my bike rides. Mine are not water-proof. They may be a bit water-resistant, but definitely not water-proof.

I actually have an old pair of Walls "Blizzard Pruf" bibs. While they are pretty warm and I have been wearing them quite a bit while biking lately, I think non-bibs might be a bit more comfortable.

I am considering a pair of snowboard pants for colder weather biking. Does anybody here wear anything like this biking and, if so, how well do they work out for you...

That sounds good. I am still looking.

I have a helmet that I wear while ATVing. I haven't worn it, yet, while on my e-bike, but I might just try that.

Indianajo, that is a good move. I typically wear a Utility Pro UHV563 jacket in orange for my fall rides. I also have an orange Walls vest that I wear pretty much any time I ride. I like the inner pocket to hold my smartphone and the hi visibility orange color. Plus, it has the reflective...

When the temperatures dropped in Minnesota some weeks back, I started wearing googles because my face got cold. I have pretty much been wearing them, day or night, since then. Tonight, however, I started without them. A minute into the ride I was going to turn back to get them, but decided to...
