This (seemed very long) winter with heated grips: Bearable!
I was only off the bike 3 days over the winter due to snow. Yeah, I know, a bit of a poof.
ANYHOO, I commute into central london every day and spend a lot of time filtering with my fingers covering the brake and clutch levers. I found these neoprene covers for the levers that stops the metal taking all the heat out of your fingers on Wemoto. They're great, you wouldn't really notice them using the levers and works a treat.
I've put heat-shrink on my levers to take the edge off the cold metal, but i may change it for some of those foam sleeves.
I couldn't be without heated grips now, i'm using fingerless special forces gloves at the moment, but still leave the grips on to get a nice heat boost to balance things out.
More people are born because of alcohol than will ever die from it.
