when wearing multiple layers, tuck each layer into itself not all into one... or the bottom layers will ride up and you'll have cold spots
the Oxford Grip Heaters are AWESOME! well worth the money.
the DRZ is WAY more comfortable to tour on than the RR or ZZR... just doesn't have the power... and needs re gearing.
People love the crazy guy headed north on a motorcycle in a blizzard
Truck Stop Showers are awesome to warm/wake your body... just buy some cheap shower shoes!*shiver*
Balaclava's are nice... but will still make you cold unless you have something between them and your skin (the cold air will still freeze the wind proof material and when that's on your neck you FREEZE)
anti fog spray does fuck all for your breath freezing on the visor at anything colder than 30*
I'll get my GPS stuff up soon... but I did 650 some odd miles the first day... stopping just west of St. Louis at 1600 or so (left at 0110) and left there at 0600 or so doing another 450 some odd miles arriving at my bro's at 1430ish.
sorry no pics... too cold and in too much of a hurry (mostly the hurry) to stop.
