silly question but I wonder???? could the sky thermal underwear be worn as normal "tights" with licra shorts on top ? ( a la batman).
Sensible answers only please.

Some reasonably priced 100% Merino base layers.

Hacienda71; Cant make it out clear enough, was your avatar picture taken at "The Rock" by any chance?

Think I'll be getting a set of the thermal underwear, like you said gavroche no reason can't be worn under the shorts. I already wear bib tights so won't even notice the difference really. The glasses will be on the list and will see what the merino is like, just wish they had long sleeve merino tops.

It is the sky deck on Sears tower in Chicago.103 floors up.

Last year I got the ski gloves and normal thermal underwear, both were great when the cold really set in.

The gloves especially are really warm and windproof too. Altura night vision waterproof winter gloves were simply not warm enough at zero degrees.

They have the sports glasses again too. Very worth buying.

Timely reply for me - I just lost a pair of gloves this morning and I was wondering if they'd do - some mornings all that messing around with locks, lights, gloves is just too complicated. Right by Aldi's, as it happens. Doh!

I have a problem at the moment where im riding in a t-shirt and jumper for half of my journy in the mornings but just getting too hot and sweaty.
Im thinking about getting one of these from aldi to replace the jumper... good idea? I need something long sleeved but not too thick and hot

or would i be better with this under my shorts and hi-vis mac

Jamin 100, I don't know which would be best.. I wear the thermals under a long-sleeved cycle top and Altura cycling legging things. At the moment you'd be better trying the ski top on its own, I would have thought, and packing the mac in case it rains.

She'll do me

Christmas puddings for me.

Oh, and maybe some glasses.
