I got caught riding in cold weather one day and I don't know the temp, but I know it had to be in the super low 20's or something equally as ri-dic. The only thought I had was, "I wanna park my bike in that ditch over there and curl up and die". Never again. Ever.

Interesting story. Anybody know of someone who actually had to be hospitalized, or was hospitalized themselves due to riding in the cold ?

If it ain't 75, I ain't pushing the button. No jacket riding for this old timer.
