Fall is here, which means winter is not far behind, especially for those living in northern latitudes in the northern hemisphere. For many, this time of year is when they get in those last few rides before the snow flies and then prep their bike for winter storage. But if one is willing, there are some simple and inexpensive ways to extend the riding season by adding cold-weather-specific items to their riding kit.
A great place to begin is with your extremities. Adding a pair of cold-weather riding gloves is an easy way to add a layer of warmth to one's hands. Cold-weather gloves are especially critical when the motorcycle has no hand guards or heated grips. Our Yeti Cold Weather Gloves, which combine a fleece comfort liner with a water-resistant Hypora® inner membrane, are ideal for cold and damp conditions.
Base layers are another simple way to add warmth to your riding kit. Our TUG Winter Long Sleeve Base Layer and 3/4 Pant use a dual-layer fabric with an ultra-warm brushed interior and a fast-drying exterior that add another level of warmth during cold weather rides.
The Helmet Breath Deflector is an often overlooked yet simple accessory that's a must when riding in cold weather. This simple device fastens to the inside of full-face helmets to provide added wind protection and frostbite prevention while also helping to eliminate goggle fogging.
You can add the following items to your riding kit to help extend the riding season this year.
