    Im not sure what the weather is like elsewhere but its been damm cold in SE Qld,  my jacket liner is permantly back in the Jacket and Im kind of warm and protected, except for my neck. I ended up buying a neck warmer off eBay, its its amazing how good it is at keeping the wind at bay, its basically a polar fleece tube that you pull over your head before putting on your helmet, if your neck is getting cold while your riding, then it might pay to buy one of these.

    Cheers

    I though that 2/3rds of Melbourne have already gone north. So if you live in Qld you don't have to travel far to visit Melbourne.

    Good thinking mate, Aldi have some really good stuff at times. Couple of years back bought some gloves for the bike, still using them today.

    Yes Brad, I remember the coldness in your city. Not once but on several occasions I understood what cold was all about, that was in Ballarat.
    My next door neighbor is from Ballarat, when the temp here drops to 10 I say, just like Ballarat
