Mamil Posted May 10, 2017 Posted May 10, 2017 I realise that this topic may lack the gravitas necessary to receive serious replies but after 10 minutes of my early morning ride this morning my ears were freezing. Other bits were insulated - a nice base layer from enjoyfitness - fleecy arm warmers - gloves - and the legs were working so not cold once I got going, cheeks covered with mamilian beard fur ..... but my ears were like ice cubes and got colder as the ride progressed. Nobody would call me wingnut either, ears don't stick out too far although as I've got older they have got larger somehow, so I'm wondering: Is this a common cycling problem? How do you solve it? First oke to say "'n lekker warm klap" wins free tickets to have his ears tormented by Justin Bieber.
Mamil Posted May 10, 2017 Author Posted May 10, 2017 Are roadies allowed to use Buffs? Buff that I pull up to cover my head under the helmet.

cat-i Posted May 10, 2017 Posted May 10, 2017 Are roadies allowed to use Buffs? Haha didn't think of that. I'm mainly commuting so understand about the cold in the morning but doesn't know a thing about looking cool on the bike

DJR Posted May 10, 2017 Posted May 10, 2017 Buff, road, mountain, hiking, climbing, paddling, sommer to a Metallica concert as well!
Fat Boab Posted May 10, 2017 Posted May 10, 2017 Those look nice!! Had one for years. Don't leave home without it...... But I've just acquired a thin buff, and like the idea of ear-warmer and neck/chin covered with the buff. I've previously used a fleece buff and that was too warm and took up too much pocket room when it warmed up.....the weather, not my pocket, or the buff.
fanievb Posted May 10, 2017 Posted May 10, 2017 NO!!!!! Get this. http://www.pezcyclingnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/xmas14-Rapha-Deep-Winter-Ha.jpg ja but with this, glasses needs to go under the straps....

Hairy Posted May 10, 2017 Posted May 10, 2017 Buff! The only thing better than a BUFF is two BUFF's! Expensive for a tube of fabric, but worth every cent on a cold ride.
