Anyone use a neoprene face mask during cold season? Im looking for one and just wanted to see if anyone else uses one with a fullface helmet and what there comments on them are. Thanks

 

For the times that I ride in temps colder than say 35 to 40 degrees, now I have ridden in temps of 25 degrees, I do wear a neoprene face mask. Mine is the Antifreeze manufacture out of England and it works wonderfully, bought it at Cyclegear. It keeps my face and neck toasty, keeping the wind from hitting both areas. I highly recommend them. Hope that helps.

 

Didn't like the neoprene w/a full-face helmet...was too bulky for me. Instead, I use a Buff. Bought mine at REI but can be found elsewhere & online. Mostly, I wear mine as a neck-warmer but can also be used as a neckwarmer-mask, balaclava, hat, headband, etc.

I just wear this


I work outside on ladders so the wind sucks 15'+ up. When I was still riding, I just pulled it down so it protected my neck from the wind

 

I ordered this today.

It was cheap and some reviews on it were good so i figured why not.

What do you mean when you were still riding? Did i miss something?

 

Ok, I gotta know... which skull?

 

Nah I didn't quit riding Round Thanksgiving last year I had a minor lowside off the F3 remember? It was getting too cold anyways so I just stored everything for the rest of the winter.

I'm leaving for work at 0630 and today we were already in the low 50s. Once it hits the low 40s in the AM, I'll stop riding in to work. The cage has a heater for a reason. Cross the freezing mark and I'm out for the season

Lol I gotta know... why a skull? Full face helmet and nobody will see anything but the eyes
