Exiled Mai
My son's ears (and face) get cold on his bike ride to school. I'm trying to find accessories (besides good gloves, which he has) to help keep him warm and motivate him to bike. Thanks for your advice from experience.
Answer
Invest in a bike specific beanie or hat. They are made very thin so they fit under a bike helmet without too much difficulty. You just need to widen the restraint system a little. There are lots of different options from skintight skullcaps to fleece that is a little thicker. They can either come down over the ears like a normal winter hat or have special extensions that reach down just to cover the ears. Take a look at the clothing at Performance Bike for options. Also, be sure to go to your local bike shop since your son would probably rather try some hats on with a helmet to see how it feels.
Another possible cool/cold weather option is a vest. I don't know how far the ride is or how cold it gets where you are but a cycling specific vest is made of a thin windbreaking material that helps keep your core warm without adding bulk. They often also have reflective material on them to make the rider easier for cars to see.
Hope that helps.

Bicycle modifications?
Jonne
I have a folding bike. I know this sounds stupid but please read on.
With very little money, how could I modify my bicycle to look like a BMX? I know it may not be as safe, or good, or practical after the mods, but please just answer my question.
Answer
put the seat way down, back and pointed nose up
[uncomfortable, inefficient]
rotate handlebars as far back as possible
stand up when you ride
put a bunch of loud tacky stickers all over it
wear your hat backwards
no helmet
big boom box blaring the worst hip hop you can find
yo this
n word that
if you are a girl, i'm thinking maybe go topless
[[to direct attention away from the non bmx bike]]
