Wind Chill Chart
With colder weather coming upon most of the nation; here is a wind-chill chart to help you gauge just how cold it may feel.
You may find it interesting just how much colder a bit of wind can be... and if you're riding late into the season, it may be enough to cause you harm. So, ride as long as you can this coming winter, but be sure to take precaution against the effects of the cold. ;)

Wind Chill Chart
Even with this chart I have a hard time convincing my wife that the windchill isn't any worse whether we go 70 or "slow down" to 40.

I rode early this morning in my summer riding outfit. Temp was about 48 degrees and I only rode about three miles total. By the time I got home I was about to freeze. Windchill of riding faster does make it colder believe it or not.

LOL...I actually had to snag a sweatshirt out of my friend's office at school this morning. It was in the low 60's and I was in t-shirt.

Ive been riding snowmobiles here for many years and have been on the extreme end of that chart. You sure learn how to appreciate a nice wood stove after a good ride on some days.
