What do people use/ recommend to keep the cold from freezing your necks in this weather?

I have a storm flap on my jacket but there's still a little chink that lets a cold blast of air in underneath the helmet. Do those bandana things work? They look a bit thin to me. Going to Ally Pally tomorrow and will look to get something then. Any recommendations?

Cheers


Apart from winter i have a nec warmer that goes down my back and front, i always wear a balaclava, mostly to keep my helmet clean but feesl strange not to have one on now. They are a deffo for the winter, your neck can get cold very quick and then that puts your concentration off riding.

I've got a standard multifunction Buff neck warmer and i find it great because i can pull it up over my nose .I've also got a EDZ thermal neck tube, but i haven't used it yet, seems really good though


Handy for when I drop a foul smelling fart indoors; like I couldn't stop doing last night after home made curry. Multifunctional indeed.

Get a balaclava. Keeping your head warm is quite important in winter conditions.


My balaclava lifts up under the chin strap Sad Ears stay warm though.

Went a bit overkill the other day, wore balaclava with neck warmer over that, hmmmmmm warm Smile My special place was frozen as have no leathers at moment Embarassed

I use a half face mask, but i've just seen these that could be good to stop that forehead chill.

I just bought a Motrax one (Code MX50) for £4.99 from Hein Gericke.

Excellent protection, is comfy and makes you look like a ninja if you pull it over your nose.

Can't figure out which end goes up though, the elasticated end or the loose end. Lmao.
