Today’s QoW comes from Premium Member Alexander Timkovich. It’s a timely question, as wintertime rides often require the key decision of what to wear, and how best to cover – especially – our knees and legs.
(We really need to replenish our stock of Questions! Please submit you own QoW ideas using the Question of the Week Ideas link.)
As long as you are generating enough heat to keep your body working properly, then embrocation is fine in that it makes you comfortable. But if your knees get cold, or worse, your core gets cold, then clothing is the only choice.
Practically speaking, you can’t use embro all over your body so adequate clothing seems to be the only real choice.
