Winter Riding - sooo cold!
Now it is getting a little cold early morning I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions about what 'leg warmers' you can wear to keep your legs warm when riding?

I've got some cheapo Netti Atom Superroubaix Legwarmers, came from Rebel and don't recall them being overly expensive. Oh, like this:

Maybe best to get some local that you can try though.
Boy you should try riding around Katoomba lately, I seem to under dress every time I head up there lately. The std lycra type arm warmers, knee warmers and leg warmers make a huge difference, I find the arm warmers make the biggest difference as their not working like your legs are. I recently got some NZO arm and knee warmers and they are much better than the cheaper ones I've used for the last 2 years which tend to slip down as you're riding. I also wear a fluro yellow bike jacket (breathable type) on the road for warmth and safety.

Come on john, be fair they live in Sydney. Any thing under 20 is freezing and over 25 is a heat wave for the poor dears
