Yeah, it is all relative to what you have used to. Years ago after my first all year winter driving experience I could do nothing but laugh when people said it is cold. After driving at worst in -25C temperatures like -5C are childs play. Now it has been about 10C here more or less, and I have no problems wearing my enduro pants and coat only. The coat is not very thick because I removed already the additional inner sleeve of it, so if I only have the coat and t-shirt I can feel a slight chill in my chest and arms, nothing to be bothered of in short trips but for longer trpis I would wear long sleeved shirt or install the additional inner sleeve. Anyway speeding kills in cold weather. There is huge differences how warm it is when driving 60km/h 80km/h or 100km/h. 100km/h is overkill. And take black ice very seriously, it is nasty stuff.

I would not consider getting a rich widow if I were you. Might not be very nice to be dependant of a woman Women often just bring problems. I already regret I called one and said that now since I have the bike I could come meet her. It would had meant a nice ride to the SW corner of Finland. She became overly enthusiastic and talked gradually me to take her to a week long camping without paying trip to the archipelago. We set even the beginning day for it. Today I called her regarding the trip and got information that some man she doesn't know are they in relationship or not came back earlier than expected from a month long work trip and it was annoying The only thing I regret was that I did not cancel the plans right away but instead said I will call again in better time. It is really beyond my understanding how they can have so many things going on in the same time. No matter, hopefully she understands that when I don't call it means the plan has been cancelled. I don't freaking want to have any role in messy relationships.
