Irvins already ??
A few degrees below freezing on some mornings, but at least it's dry. Probably wear the Perry to the pub tomorrow. If the Anj-4 arrives then maybe that one !

I take my morning walk about an hour before sunup each morning and I've worn the A2 for the past three weeks but with the strong cold front comming through tonite I'll start wearing a G1 tomorrow.
Maybe we should start a "Flight Jackets at the Pub" thread, its getting that time of the year.

The weather has been strange here for the last couple of weeks. Windy, cold, warm and on some days even slightly humid. I wore a G-1 last week and found myself sweating in it!
I have worn one of my GW Goatskin RWs the last couple of days and this has been fine. Looking forward to 'sub-zero' days when I can wear the Buzz Rickson B-2 I bought in the summer! This is the nearest to an Irvin I have. The moquette lining is very soft and luxurious but also incredibly warm so we will see.
I might even get the Gordon & Ferguson M-69F full-length coat out of the loft as this is probably the ultimate in cold weather protection.
Knowing my luck, my Alfa will probably 'complain' about the cold soon and I shall be walking to the station every day.

Up on the Scottish Borders today, it was 'fresh!' Fresh in that 'blue skies' ...'heatless bright sun in your eyes' with a nip in the air kinda 'fresh!'
So I upped the 'wind chill factor' by popping the hood down and upping the revs on my Lola!! Like the chromed clad gal she is, who makes a priest believe he's packing some heat in his pocket, she responded with that throaty purr that never fails to put a smile on my face. When her revs hit the 'special' IRVIN WEATHER indicator on the dash-board, I knew it was the 'first day' this autumn for the Irvin!! Bring on winter...!

GW Dubow A-2 weather here. Some fog and chill in the early mornings, breezy, broken sun in the afternoons. Fall is my favorite.
