Constructing a Bicycle Wind ShieldVisorgogs help cut the wind chill and keep my face warmer A lightweight fleece headband is helmet compatible and comfortable in a wide range of temperatures. It disappears in a pocket once I arrive. "Cat Crap" is an anti-fog agent that helps insure my googles and glasses keep on workin'. A thin wool beanie is also helmet-compatible and comfortable in range of cold weather. An easy and quick adjustment is important quality in a good hood. It should be able to fit easily under or over a helmet. (But it doesn't need to do both.) This Neoprene face mask from Seirus is great for cutting the wind and proving some insulation. It's also small enough to easily slip a pocket upon arrival.
An assortment of clothing I use to keep my face and head comfortable in cold and windy weather. For further commentary, see my related blog post

I've cycled year-round for about 20 years now, and my eight years in the midwest was probably the most challenging as far as winter weather goes.
I have the Seirus balaclava, which is absolutely awesome. I've tried a number of face-mask solutions but the Seirus with the breathing holes works the best.
