Re: [ST] Short results and some chilling facts

["Big Riff" <big_riff@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

The Gerbing jacket liner is a high quality piece of gear -- You can't go 
wrong with it.  It's a bit more expensive than Widder, but the sleeves are 
worth it.  Widder has add-on arm chaps for their vest, but it seems like a 
hassle to me.  Having both the heated grips and heated gloves (Gerbing), I 
agree with the other opinions on this:  The grips are great as they are 
always available, but for long trips in sub freezing temps heated gloves are 
much better.
