woolly hat under helmet?

GordonFreeman

Cannot seem to fit my woolly hat under the helmet and it's probably not advisable but what does anyone else use for winter?

An old helmet underhat by 'parrot' if anybody remembers them,still as good as new. Or a buff when parrot in the wash

First hit on Google when I search It's like a snood.

The branded ones are quite expensive but you can sometimes find them on sale or 'fake' ones for less. The cafe half way around Coed y Brenin used to sell them for a few quid and an MTB magazine that's not MBUK occasionally give them away with the magazine.

I use a headband. Keeps my ears and forehead warm whilst allowing the vents in my helmet to keep me cool still.

I use a thin wooly hat - obvious really! It's a merino wool one & works well in really cold weather. Headbands that go over the ears work well too.

A very thin wooly hat works, it doesn't need to be thick to keep your ears warm

One of these works a treat for me down to about 1 or 2C. Folds into no space at all so can be removed and stuffed in a pocket if you get too warm. It still keeps you warm when it's wet and dries really quickly.
