Thanks, Jon. Yeah, the problems I have with Buff buffs is they don't block wind and they get very damp and then freeze and then I have to choose between breathing and it now being an effective wind block fabric ice barrier. Grin.
Hey lum gim fong, I'm not smart enough to A) realize that cold weather isn't a fantastic blast of fun and delight and thus B) move to Florida. Grin. Though from some of the winter driving I've seen, a number of folks have come here and brought their warmer climbs with them in their cars. It's easy to tell which drivers to avoid: wearing a t-shirt clutching the wheel for dear life. The drivers with an arm over the back of the seat and a lazy hand on the wheel -- they know what their doing -- and they know that modern vehicles don't matter for much. Grin. Derailure: Nah. In the extreme cold everything works great. Snow is powder, and stays out the drivetrain. Mud is frozen solid and stays on the roads/trails. No issues with my light handed use of chainsaw oil on my chain. Where the derailure has challenges is in the wet sloppy ooze of snowy/wet 25˚-45˚F. That mess kicks up into the derailure, freezes, and you have a single speed. Which is generally fine because in that goop you can't shift above low gear even going downhill in a tailwind. So it's a feature, not a bug. Sardonic grin. With abandon, Patrick On Saturday, December 3, 2016 at 9:33:28 AM UTC-7, Deacon Patrick wrote: > > Are you a blustery bonzo?
