Helm*t Covers - Recommendations?
Hello,
Can any of you recommend a good helm*t cover (and where to get it). I like to use one for cold weather riding and also if I get caught in the rain. Some of you Seattle folks should be able to speak from experience! :-) Thanks, Steve |

Some of you Seattle folks should be able to speak from experience! :-) Thanks, Steve I like the Sugoi one a lot. I have had a few of them over the years and be very happy with it. I bet you can get one from REI. But the biggest advice I can give is to take your helm*t with you and test fit it first. Some covers fit some helm*ts, some do not. You will not know unless you try it first. It is also a great idea to put the helm*t on and try putting the cover on while you are wearing it to get a better idea of how easy it is to put on and take off while riding. Chris |

Some of you Seattle folks should be able to speak from experience! :-) Thanks, Steve I'm highly qualified to answer this, Steve and I don't live in Seattle but Texas. :-) What I use is a very thin, lightweight 'shower cap'. I found a package of them in a grocery store, 'hair care' products section several years ago and there were about 6 of them in the package. If I remember correctly, there were 2 each of red, yellow and black. They cost almost nothing, weigh almost nothing and don't take much more space in your pocket than a Kleenex. Mostly I use mine as a wind blocker by putting one over my helmet but it also will work under the helmet, too. Hope this helps you. Lewis. ***** |

It is called a "processing cap" and is used for giving a permanent wave. These caps tend to be of slightly heavier plastic and usually are plain, i.e., no little duckies or kitten designs on them. You can find them in stores that sell beauty supplies. They are cheap and disposable. Pat |

The wool ones are good in the wet and you can even get them with ear flaps. http://www.walzcaps.com/ |

One thing I do need is one that will fit over the visor. Learned that several years ago the hard way. Steve |
