Today I went to Mountain Equipment Co-Op and purchased wind resistant tights, a merino wool, tank style undershirt and a windproof beanie cap. Then I came home dressed in all my new gear and went out for a 15 km ride around the block. It was only 3 degree celsius (37 fahrenheit) and I didn't have tights. I was riding against a north wind and so I really appreciated the tights! Unfortunately with the time change it is now going to get dark so early that it makes it hard for me to get out after work so I might not get too many more rides in this season.
