Winter Bike Commute Layering Protocol
Winter bike commute layering protocol stacks wicking base, wind shell, and removable gloves so sweat and wind chill do not combine into unsafe numbness.
Winter bike commute layering protocol balances sweat on climbs with wind chill on descents—wicking base, breathable mid, windfront shell, and removable gloves. Start cool at the door; overheating early soaks the base layer before the bridge crossing.
Shoe covers and ear protection prevent the numbness that makes braking unsafe. Pack a dry top for the office when commute exceeds thirty minutes.
Lights matter more with short daylight.

How should I layer for a cold bike commute?
Wicking base, light insulation you can open, and a windfront shell. Start slightly cool, carry dry gloves, and use shoe covers below freezing.
