Seriously. Gone from heated Grips on Sunday to sweating like a Badger this last couple of days. What do people wear to be reasonably cool and reasonably safe? Whats the thinking on the Kevlar Jeans? Summer Gloves etc.

I have a pair of Hood Kryno jeans and I think they're very good. Bit expensive though.

Are we talking Matalan or Designer cost?

Mesh jackets are good in this weather.

Ditto on the Hood jeans wozza, I don'y buy mine :lol: family get them for xmas for me :lol: any thin summer gloves will do & a Textile jacket with armour & air vents doesn't have to be a expensive one I got my Rayven bike jacket for £30 in a sale Hood & Draggin jeans are around the 100 mark but good, I prefer the Hood for quality

Saw loads of semi naked riders out today, sadly all male :cry: It was very hot, up to 29 degrees in parts, mainly my nuts!

The tea-time weather slot last night compared Southampton's 27C with last week's 12C! It's 4am and showing 16C right now! There ought to be a law against it!
