Hello.

Twice a day I ride bicycle for 2km along a busy city road (2x2 lanes at 50km/h).

From a health standpoint, is it recommended to wear a face mask (N95)? Does it stop exhaust fumes?

Thank you.

    It would be incredibly difficult to bike with a real n95 quality mask. You would definitely have to get one with exhaust valves for exhalation.

      I use a FFP3-Mask with exhaust valves while biking in spring and early summer to filter out pollen and this works really well for me!

      Masks without valves are exhausting to me and fog up my glasses too much though.
