Winter Cycling Headerwear
In really cold winter weather it's important to keep your head warm. Windproof skull caps / headbands are small and neat enough to tuck away in any rucksack or jacket pocket. They are often worn underneath a cycle helmet. Next is the waterproof helmet cover. Great for visibility and will keep rain off your head.
Cycling sunglasses also play a good part in the winter, cold bright days with low sun will mess with your vision. Cyclists, car drivers & motorcyclists will all have problems with low sun in the winter. Cycling sunglasses can be really useful.

At under £20 you can buy a winter essential. You can lose a lot of heat from your head so keep it in! Cold wind on your head really can make it uncomfortable. This little items will make a big difference. For commuting to work the night vision waterproof cover is ideal especially on a darker wet ride home the yellow really stands out well.
