 Regardless of a flourishing crop of hair, the scalp is a
wonderful radiator. Wouldn't want the brain to overheat! The first chore when it gets cool
is to reduce the breeze up there.You can find a little polypropylene
skullcap in the catalogues. It can cover your cold ears as well. And a helmet cover is
next.When it gets really cold a
balaclava is in order. You can find them in silk, polypropylene or wool. Here again,
layering works (as long as both layers are really thin and fit OK under your helmet.) And
you might think about carrying a dry balaclava to change if you're sweaty after any lull
in the ride. |

| When it's nearing single digits you will want to use Vaseline on any
skin you can't cover - and maybe make that a minimum with ventilated
goggles.
