Looks like a good time. I didn't get to ride this weekend but speaking of the cold and Urals, I assisted a neighbor in wiring heated hand grips on his Ural. He decided to do like me and steal power from the daytime running lamp bulb. His Ural headlight turns on as soon as the bike starts, so the much weaker bulb seemed obsolete in my opinion. He says there is enough juice to run the grips fine, as long as the bike is warmed up. Maybe he needs to connect to a different circuit? The set he bought draws 48w and has a low voltage safety shut-off. The alternator on the Ural is substantial though, and the wiring is done very nicely compared to my chinabike.
