Warm, peaked cap?

[SWSteve]

Do you wear a thermal, peaked, cap under your helmet/instead of a helmet? If so, what do you wear?

Thanks.

Just summer peaked cap with wooly hat over it or buff on head with cap on top, depends how cold it is

Normal cycling cap if it's cold, if it's very cold I put a thermal headband on to cover my lugs

I've a Sugoi thermal cap that I use in summer, early autumn and late spring but I switch to a thinsulate beanie about now and if it gets really cold, I switch to a 4x fleece hat - think Russian-ish but fleece throughout - but I'm rarely cold enough unless I'm walking.

I use duct tape to cover the vent holes on my helmet to reduce the cold air. This is often good enough to avoid needing a woollen hat underneath for a few more weeks.

5 posts and nobody has said A Buff, Pish and Tosh to the lot of you.

that works fine for me made into a skullcap to keep my head and ears warm for 99% of the winter. I have a windstopper Balaclava that is super toasty on even the very coldest well below zero days.


Edit: Bugger, the blue man typed less than me.

Made me smile. In the advert, cold enough to need a hat, but happy to ride without gloves!

I got one of these (in black) in their recent sale for £7, it is very warm but it hasn't been anywhere near cold enough to wear it yet.

Not really being used as a buff, then, is it?

that their benefit tho, multi purpose utility. they're like the smartphone of things to keep you warm above the shoulders

In hot or mild weather, I wear a light bandana under the helmet. (I have an ever-growing bald spot which can get burned by the sun or chilled in cooler conditions. It is alos useful for absorbing sweat.)

In cool conditions, I use a buff.

In cold/wet conditions I wear a gore skull cap. I found a new one my size lying on a footpath when I was out on a walk over local hills!

baseball type cap in summer, a thicker fleecy lumberjack style hat in the winter.
