Also, if the wind-chill is into the minus figures neoprene is literally the worst thing on the planet, as it gets wet and starts freezing on your hands...

I had a very "character building" ride last where I had to decide between no gloves and neoprene... I spent half the ride with one hand or the other inside my jersey under my arm trying to alternately warm my hands up!

I used to ride with someone who never wore gloves in the winter. He reckoned the first hour was the worst, then the body realised it needed to save his fingers and would send more blood to his hands to warm them up. Mentalist.

This was in Scotland btw.

Like the elderly gent in my club who insists you should train without a bidon.
