Well, in just a week how the weather has turned on us! The late ‘indian summer’ as some people referred to it as, was definitely too good to be true. With bikers (including me) flocking to the roads and making the most of those glorious summer days (which we definitely saw too little of this year) it was a week of pure pleasure. But now that the autumn wind is truly upon us, and winter I can definitely see just over the horizon, most people believe that their beloved bikes must head to the garage in isolation for a good 5 months at least – and this is where you’re wrong.
For those of you who still have to mount your motorcycles in winter due to that being your only form of transport, or on the other hand, those of you who do actively choose to ride around despite the elements, the wonder of heated clothing has surely been discovered by you already? If not..how one earth are you still managing to get out of bed everyday!? And for the majority of you who do discard your bike to the garage, I’m here to let you in on a little secret..the world of heated motorcycle clothing.
