If you ride a BMW, buy one of those cool heated vests and get some heated
handgrips, and you're set to go!

I made a slightly different discovery this morning. It was also around -5C,
gorgeous weather, so I took my motorcycle to go the office. I discovered,
however, that neither my gloves nor the long underwear I wore are adequate
for a 45 km commute at motorway speeds. This weekend I will have to go to
the local MC emporium and buy some proper winter gloves and thermal undies.
