Am I a girl?

Went down to JHP this afternoon to pick up my bike, seemed like a nice pleasant day for a gentle 120 mile ride home.....

Bugger me it was cold out there

Am I a complete girly wuss or something?? I had thermals, tshirt, leathers and paddock jacket on, plus neck warmer and under gloves... and I am still shivering!!!

To be fair, Freak was very civilised and did stop so we could have a cup of coffee, it must have been really unbearable for him in the car!!!

I can't eb the only one that feels the cold, especially with the extra built in insulation i have...

Yeah but you said earlier that you are only 18........ I never felt the cold when I was 18 ( 19 and a half years ago ) You just wait til you get to my age.........

Mood: st2......we can rebuild
i did a quick 50 mile blat not far from cov
seemed pretty warm to me.

saying that ive been out before on warmer days and the cold has sudenly hit me, i think a lot of it is down to fatigue (ive had about 5 go's at spelling that)the tireder you get the more you feel the cold.
the only cure seems to be a bacon butty and a hot tea.
as for weather your a girl or not i think there are ways of telling though im not sure of the exact technicalities

god my spelling!!

I never felt cold on my bike when I was 40 - mind you, that was in the middle of August
Must admit it was a bit of a mistake to go out today with no liner in my jacket & just at shirt underneath....it was so cold that I'm reliably informed that this afternoon, Nelly turned the heating on in his workshop without being asked!
