I cycled home with my woolly winter hat on the other night.
Something didn't feel quite right. I felt less confident but couldn't quite put my finger on it
Then I realised that the hat being over my ears was muffling the sound slightly so I couldn't tell exactly how close vehicles behind me were or how fast they were moving. I moved it above my ears and all was well again
