Yeah I can just see myself wearing bikers gloves at 10K feet altitude
and trying to control all the avionics. Used to drive a bike in my
20s - and even at 20F in Toronto. That was quite a few moons ago -
wouldn't survive now.

Took a flight in Aug 2006 to the west coast in Aug. It was 80F on
ground and near freezing at 12K above the mountains. We used to run to
the FBO bathrooms shivering and in our coats - probably looked nuts.

Probably off base but the motorcycle guys have various bits of electrically
heated clothing they run off of the bikes alternator. You even can buy
fully heated suits. An aircraft alternator is probably bigger than one on a
motorcycle.
