[QUOTE="nuggetino, post: 249489, member: 1884"] Need a good sleeping bag.One that is rated to minus 5 in the center of it's comfort zone. Most sleeping bags advertise extreme ratings, that is, you won't die at minus 10 in a sleeping bag rated to minus 10 but you'll be in the fetal position holding onto a photo of your wife and kids in the hope you'll make it through the night. I had a minus 18 sleeping bag for the simpson desert run. Did a solo crossing on the DR650 mid winter. I froze my ass off. Was minus 4 at night. Didn't find out until I got home the comfort zone for my bag was 0 to +5. Got a sleeping bag rated to minus 38 now. It's just right for winter temps below zero and can still unzip to regulate temp when things warm up a bit. [/QUOTE]
