- Savour the Warmth of Hot Chips: Caught in a sudden chill while riding your XBYKE motorcycle in the UAE? A bundle of hot chips, wrapped in paper and tucked into your jacket, can provide instant warmth. Plus, the comforting aroma of deep-fried potatoes will accompany you all the way home.
- Utilize Plastic Shopping Bags: If you have any leftover plastic bags, store them under your seat or in your tank bag. They can be your saviour during unexpected rainfalls. Slip a bag over your socks and under your boots to keep your feet dry and warm.
- Latex Gloves for the Win: Whether it’s a downpour or a cold snap, thin latex gloves can be a lifesaver. Wearing a latex glove under your riding gloves can prevent your skin from staining due to the glove dye and keep your hands dry and warm.
- Newspaper Layering: If you can’t find a place to grab some hot food or if the smell of food isn’t your thing, layering is your key to warmth. A layer of newspaper between your t-shirt and your jacket can effectively keep your torso warm.
- DIY Neck Warmer: A neck warmer can significantly improve your comfort and concentration levels during a cold ride. Cut a 10cm strip from the bottom of an old t-shirt, loop it, and voila, you have an effective neck warmer.
- Take a Food Break: Digestion raises body temperature. If you’re feeling extremely cold and losing focus, stop and eat something. A short break from riding can help restore your concentration levels, protect you from the elements, and give your body a chance to warm up for the next part of your journey.
Stay prepared for unpredictable weather and enjoy your rides with XBYKE in the UAE. Remember, the key to a comfortable ride is staying warm and dry.
