    Hey - just a quick one on what to wear on the long spins during the cold weather. At the moment I've a pair of thermal bib tights, a base layer on top, a jersey, and either a heavier jersey (for day) or a luminous light jacket (for night). Top is fine, but the dhb Merson bib tights I have I think are leaving my rear end a little cold!
    Should I be wearing something under/over these?
    Cheers

    P.S. Also, when I get out of the saddle my lower stomach area is quite cold

    No. Your arse is not an extremity, therefore it's cold because you are. Try sticking a skullcap on under the helmet.

    Put the base layer under the bibs.

    I wouldn't be warm enough in regular long tights these days. I wear these over my shorts (mine don't have a chamois). They were a tad expensive but I'm glad I bought them.
