Wind Chill
Hello all,
I was looking at the chart in the below link. Does it mean if it is 40 degrees out and you are going 70 degrees.....then the wind chill is 10 degrees?

Partially correct. That formula is the old formula that is a bit aggressive. The currently accepted formula is a bit more complicated but the following link has a calculator. So, for your variables the old formula shows it to be about 10 F, whereas the new formula is 23.8 F. Still cold, and I personally experienced it this week!!

On the Spyder the wind chill is probably somewhat less because of the wind protection from the windshield and air deflectors. Also, the apparent chill depends on sunshine also. 50° under clouds feels a whole cooler than 50° with bright sun shining. At least that's been my experience.

Never used such scientific methods!
I used to ride my Norton Atlas to work and when I got to work I took
my gloves off and if I could break bits off from my frozen beard it was
cold! How cold it was at that point in time was entirely academic.....I had
to ride to work there was no choice!
