4th vote for buffs. But, on cold days add a 180. These things are terribly uncomfortable for helmetless wear, but for some reason they are comfy wrapped around the helmet straps. I like them better than the ear bags because I lose things, easier not to lose.

You can't tell from the photo - but the strap goes around the back of the neck, not over the head, so this doesn't get in the way of the helmet.

If anyone knits they may be interested in the free online pattern for bike helmet earwarmers that slide onto the straps of your bike helmet. It's hard to see them in the picture with the pattern here (PDF file) , but there's a good picture on someone's blog who knitted them in orange, here (scroll down to second picture).
