Cold weather riding: Level of fitness

  Our level of fitness will play a major role in how well we deal with the cold. Good, strong circulation will make as much difference as it does to an engine's cooling system. An older cooling system (ie more scale buildup etc) will be less effective than a new system. Same with our bodies. Just something we need to consider and factor in.

Also, medical conditions that affect circulation such as diabetes also play a role. Know yourself and establish reasonable goals.
