Title: Rding in Siberia in winter
Post by: steven c on December 13, 2021, 05:52:23 PM

 So you think you ride when it is cold, how about -76F.

And I thought it was cold up here in Northern Canada, our weather is tropical compared to Siberia. I never could figure out why Napoleon or Hitler wanted to take over Russia!

 As someone who regularly rides in extreme cold and remote tundra (it is a balmy -14f out as I write this) , I am in awe of this guy! with the best suits, helmets etc..this is still hard to do. now and then I take out my ATC185s and run around in the cold play in the snow but even with gauntlets you get real cold hands without grip heaters!
 Had an XR650r set up with studs to play around with 15 years or so ago..wish I had the winglet skis! great idea!

I am Australian,  therefore I have absolutely zero concept of -76f, the coldest Ive ridden in is -12c.
Thats just got knobs on it.
Russians invented vodka/perfected for a reason it seems.
