We need more than heated grips, we need heated suits!!!
Farkin freezing, and white shit that sticks to you as you ride through it.
Good weather, good woman, good road, good bike, good-bye!!

White shit?
Wow. What are the politicians feeding you guys?
I love my heated grips more than anything else I have ever done to a bike. I have made four people get them and have them installed in the last three weeks. I'm thinking about ringing the company and asking for a commission! Max and Bruce were so right!! And I was so WRONG! Frankly, that never happens.
I must admit though, even the heated grips were struggling yesterday.

Have you booked for Tassie yet
No not yet! I must. Would I get the look if I bought two good friends with me? I guess I better ask Driller. they are the couple I met when I accidentally went to Ayres Rock. I've been meaning to get out and ride with them for AGES, and this sounds like fun! they would fit in really well, they are lovely.

HI heidi, i am thinking of getting some heated grips,but some riders say the top of their hands still get frozen,do you have this problem,i have been looking at some heated gloves that you can recharge,
regards old fella.

Hey dude
Yes, the tops of your hands do get cold, but the palms are so toasty warm that you can survive. Apparently there is a new kind of glove (I've only heard of it), that is a summer glove on the palm side, so you get all the feel of a summer glove, but is thickly padded on the outside so you stay warm. Sounds good, but I must admit my soft summer gloves are FINE with the grip warmers, even on a minus eight morning. Every day for the last week or so has been minus something in the mornings, and I've been FINE. I can't talk these things up highly enough, I'm a born again when it comes to the grip warmers.
