Good for winter biking

By Ranked #703 - Hats January 7, 2010

I mostly like this thing. Super comfortable and warm as heck. I've been biking to work and get too warm with a fleece beanie over top. So today I tried with only the balaclava under my helmet and it was great. The ear holes do allow me to hear stuff, but can also be a pain when riding into the wind, it gets noisy. Anyone else experience that? I've been riding in about 10-degree windchill... so far so good.
