Finally the weather is perfect for a test ride. It is 16 below and I wear my Big Boy overalls: Singing “I’m a big, big boy in a big, big world…” I did 150 kilometres today and several layers of clothing seems to work. I still haven’t got hold of the electrically heated BWM vest but found it OK anyway. To do a whole day, the vest will be necessary though. My biggest problems to solve are inner gloves in my beaver hide gloves and solve the problem with the helmet.

An ordinary helmet fogs up the visor and a motocross helmet and goggles deepfreezes the brains after 100kms. Had I met a vacuum cleaner salesman, I’d have bought one.
