I was going to add that I have no idea if a Lowe Alpine fits under another hat.</p> <p>Nobody mentioned "Wear the fox hat" either.</p> <p>On Thursday, when it was still sunny, I got to the boy's school and took my Tilley hat off to find that I had Sennheisers and an unnoticed pair of reading glasses on under it. Both the headphones and reading glasses were of a folding type but neither were folded at the time. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=5969#post-63937 Tue, 03 Apr 2012 18:45:45 +0000 Dave 63937@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>The obvious suggestion nobody's made yet is just to join the club and wear your fleece hat! </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=5969#post-63919 Tue, 03 Apr 2012 17:38:56 +0000 wee folding bike 63919@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Zenfrozt,</p> <p>You only use one X at a time. The other condenses into a Barr Body. Two active Xs would cause issues. Tortoiseshell cats are a result of the random nature of female X usage. Some patches use the paternal and others the maternal X which gives rise to the different colours.</p> <p>I sometimes take off the sides of face hair to present a more <strong>Klingon</strong> aspect but usually I just leave the whole thing in place. Going <strong>Klingon</strong> does feel a wee bit cold to begin with. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=5969#post-63915 Tue, 03 Apr 2012 17:21:57 +0000 crowriver 63915@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>@custard, I have something similar that I picked up in TK Maxx for not much a few years ago. They often have running/hiking/snowboarding stuff there.</p> <p>@ARobComp, I like the look of that but I already have too many caps. When not donning a helmet to ride (ie. most of the time) I wear one of these:</p> <p><a href="http://www.walzcaps.com/caps_wool-fourpanel.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.walzcaps.com/caps_wool-fourpanel.html</a></p> <p>Mine is green wool, <strike>which they don't seem to make any more</strike>. Seems it's part of their 'eco' range, made of organic hemp, wool, and lycra indeed!</p> <p><a href="http://www.walzcaps.com/caps_organic.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.walzcaps.com/caps_organic.html</a></p> <p>Oh and a full set beard is a good idea in windy Scottish weather. If you can grow one. </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=5969#post-63904 Tue, 03 Apr 2012 16:54:23 +0000 Zenfrozt 63904@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>@uberuce and @custard, lol I like the idea of that and my fiance talks of the benefits but my extra x chromosome has dictated that it is impossible for me to grow such awesome facial warming furniture. That said if I were a man and could grow facial fur, I would probably sport a fabulous moustache that I could wax so that it turned up at the sides :P </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=5969#post-63901 Tue, 03 Apr 2012 16:46:45 +0000 custard 63901@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>lol @Uberuce<br /> I did the same,shaved for the first time last week<br /> seems i was premature! </p> http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/topic.php?id=5969#post-63788 Tue, 03 Apr 2012 09:21:32 +0000 ARobComp 63788@http://citycyclingedinburgh.info/bbpress/ <p>Buffs are good.
