For those interested in constructive dialogue on the matter, I had great success this morning using a Coolmax neck gaitor. When I’m riding alone not within
sight of anyone, I drop the gaiter below my chin. As I approach someone, say 20-30 yards back, I pull it up over my nose and mouth. Once clear by the same distance, down it goes again. As an aside, from my 2-hour ride this morning, which suffers some sample
bias for sure, my method seems to be preferred. Most cyclists, hikers and runners were doing the exact same thing.
