These things are seriously warm. Been using mine with the snowblower.

Castelli GPM Beanie. Now all I need is weather cold enough to wear it. Fits great, feels good, seems just about right regarding weight. I like the extra little band of fleece around the ears.

Probably (hopefully) thin enough but warm enough to wear without buying a new helmet. On the other hand, decades ago I got a couple of thin cotton welders caps from a previous life and wore them with no ill effects (and probably no measurable good effects either), so I'll probably survive no matter the outcome.

A quick glance down while riding will confirm your dicks (are all) still there. 😂

I just wish black wasn't such a dominant color these days. I like to be more visible to drivers, rather than less.

Maybe the clothes need to match the ugly black components, I dunno.

Oh those are my Casual street clothing things

As for on the road I wear colors! these are a few of my favorites
(Perfettos & Beta RoS )
The Beta is only 200 grams & works great for what it weighs
The Perfettos run 300 grams but have a great venting system (both size medium)
