My trailer hitch story happened last week . I get directed to pick up a small trailer full of crokinole board and fold up tables . The ball on my truck is 2/5/16 trailer is 2 inch ,easy enough just flip the hitch over to the 2 ball . All good until a few days later when I need to haul a 2/5/16 trailer and forget to flip the ball hitch . Yep hitch jumps off ball loading the SxS good thing it came off loading and not on the highway. Tailgate damage buffed right out .
My wife has a heated vest from Ororo bought from Amazon, she loves it. Helps keep her warm when the temps drop. She also has heated gloves from FXR, and heated boot inserts from Thermacell. Ski
The older I get the taller my windshields get. I wear a balaclava with back and chest protection to eliminate any neck breeze, deer skin gloves from Work Wear with muffs. No cold hands, ever. Hot Paws in my pockets for trailside coffee breaks where my gloves go inside my jacket. I also carry mitts on board for the times I may need them.
It all works perfect for temps down to around -15. I've rode in colder with this setup but trailside stops arent happening. At -20 I'm just heading somewhere warm. Home or a motel, either will do. lol
Hot Paws are cheap and my best friend. Early "ice out" on the water or sledding. There are days that I hit Georgian bay at first light and sledding in the afternoon. Good days.
