Actually, first thing to keep warm is the head — a had or earband comes first, gloves/mits are next and then something on the feet.

Interesting ad though.

“Do they run ads from the Tundra down in Florida?”

Don’t know if this ran here. I imagine those Miller ads usually run during TV sports, which I don’t watch.

“Except for the gloves, he is probably working hard enough to stay warm.”
True; my Floridian bias is showing. And that’s what my fellow Floridians would think.

Except for the gloves, he is probably working hard enough to stay warm. My wife always wondered why I would be shoveling snow with a long sleeve t-shirt, hat, and gloves. Until she tried it.

Perceptions are that bicycles are for geeks or grad students, or are weekend toys ridden by overpaid yuppies who read Buycycling Magazine. Not for real people with real missions to accomplish. Like getting some beer at the corner store.

Viewer thinks: “If this overweight knucklehead, who can’t be bothered to put on a pair of gloves or button his jacket, can bike in a snow storm, I can ride to the store on a nice day.”

Definitely on point. This is the guy we need to win over so he isn’t yelling cusses at us from his pickup truck.
