Used bar muffs for many years through winter? Kept the wind blast off & the rain as well, double win! Took a bit of getting used to...
Motrax ones were best! :)

I was going to get some muffs last year at bike show but Nokesy wouldn't let me, said they were uncool and she wouldn't ride with me if I bought them!! ::)
I would stick my fingers in a muff anytime :D :o :D ;)

"Uncool" is freezing cold wet hands!Quote:

Its like having roofs for your hands! You can wear summer gloves in Winter & still have toasty fingers. :)
Some years ago I used to commute regularly between Bristol & London in the depths of winter (didn't have a car licence then) at close to zero temperatures - finger pain could become excruciating...
Tried muffs - good at keeping wind chill off - but pressed against handlebar levers at high speed...
Heated grips - no good - its the outside of your hands that get cold from wind chill not the inside...
Finally found some light weight gloves with heating elements only on the back of the hand... incredible - London to Bristol at 0 degrees centegrade - with light weight gloves - hands warm as toast...
