re: you really need the right clothes

I was out the other day cycling in -13°C, and I was the perfect temperature, didn't sweat, wasn't cold. The next day it was still -13°C, so I wore the same clothes, but I was cold, my fingers and toes went numb, and I ended up cutting the ride short. The difference between those two -13°C days was the humidity. It`s huge!



Ah yes, we don't get that often here. It's mostly dry cold. When it's humid some clothes quickly just becomes ice cakes and have no function any more.
