Riding into the sun - Owww! I can't seeee!!!
Argh my eyes!
What does everyone else do when they are riding into the sun? I try and tip my helmet to shade my eyes but that doesn't work very well. Any tips? |

I've got a Fog City insert that is light reactive - the tint isn't great, but it does help.
Of course you always have the option to squint alot and get a headache!

Dark visor - totally black - never a problem with the sun.
Problem today was misting up - I had superglued my vent open and when I got to work I realised it had failed - never thought to check, just thought it was extra cold. |

Caberg Trip Lid with Dual Visor System
Normal ckear main visor with flip up/down smoked one. Was great a few weeks ago when I was leaving work to low autumn sun that would set/go behind buildings half way through - no messing around with trying to get sunglasses off. David |

Caberg Justissimo. I knew I'd be riding in all weathers, so the flip up/down sun visor was a must! It's not perfect, but it's a damned sight better than riding blind!

Cool. Does anyone find they get reflections of their sunglasses in their visors?

I find using my tinted (its very very tinted) visor works a treat, I don't even need to squint.
