ep 73. Heated Gear for Winter Riding
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Recorded on a frigid February 8, we’re talking about cold-weather riding and the growing role of heated gear: what works, what doesn’t, and how to use it safely.
We cover:
🧤 Why cyclists lose heat so fast (wind, sweat, metal contact points)
🔥 Heated socks vs. heated gloves vs. liners: what actually helps on a bike
⚡ Battery strategy, moisture management, and failure planning
🧠 The big safety truth: cold hands = slower reactions and less control
⚠️ When electronics help and when they can hide warning signs
🌟 Women Shredders Shout-Out:
Shelley Lutz — longtime trail builder, coach, mentor, and recipient of the IMBA Volunteer of the Year Award. Shelley’s decades of work at Pine Hill Park and beyond have shaped Vermont riding and inspired generations of riders.
