Hi

this mostly relates to road riding as I am ok off-road, I find that I cannot seem to stay warm in the legs and body on the road. Hands and feet seem ok, think that I will buy some windproof tights for the legs but unsure what to get for the body.

I have some merino, an endura soft shell, and an event (old) jacket. I think that I need something windproof - any recommendations?

cheers

Kev

I often wear a gilet on the road as well, to keep the core temp up. It's all about layering though, lots of thin ones, preferably with a windproof outer layer. And keep your arms and legs covered, either with long sleeves and legs on your tops and shorts, or with proper arm and leg warmers.
