Thank you so much for sharing Sage! It was an absolutely pleasure having you hang out with us. I hope we can do it again sometime!

Nice one Sage... And I agree... I just jam out my normal gear for a winter ride short pant and all... I#m usually good with shorts untill about 0 degrees... Sometimes even a bit below... Last ride we were at -7 in shorts... But the feet is where you really feel it... Once the shoes get moist, it's overs. The toes get painfully cold. I usually tripple sock it and slide a doggie poop bag in between the socks. This traps the heat and keeps the moisture off.

[@TrailSage]

I love that plastic bag between socks trick Phil. I might have to give that one a try. Thanks for the feedback brotha!

[@splooshmtb]

Fully relate to the 2 weeks off. Weirdly enough, after 4 weeks off the MTB I just performed way better than my norm. Great segments and points from every one here!

[@TrailSage]

Right on, thanks for the feedback Zane! Hope the Lynskey is getting a good workout this winter.

[@splooshmtb]

@@TrailSage it definitely is😂

[@GeneVilleneuve]

Next time you need a Canadian on the webinar.

[@TrailSage]

Ha! I will let Brian and Erin know that for future livestreams ;)

[@twotrailsmtb]

Yep, gotta wear shorts all year round. I've yet to find a great pair of gloves to help keep my hands warm.

[@TrailSage]

I've had good success with Gore gloves Will. You may also want to look into Bar Mitts, they make them for road and mountain bikes.

[@twotrailsmtb]

@@TrailSageThanks. I may try the Gore Thermo gloves. They are on sale now. That's my only challenge with cold weather riding - the hands. I double up on my Fox gloves, but just not enough. Otherwise I love it.

[@TrailSage]

@@twotrailsmtbHave you tried putting toe warmers in the gloves? I'll do that when the temps get into the teens.
