Help with Glasses/Googles

[[email protected]]

It was 11 degrees farenheit on my ride to work today. I have a scull
cap and neoprene face mask. The combo is great! The only remaining
issues I have is finding coverage for me eyes that won't fog up. I
breather through my mouth (sinus problems). I am about ready to try
swim googles! Any advice?

Cross Country skiers routinely face the same problems and their choices
for eyewear will probably be rather better suited to a bike than
swimming goggles. So off to the ski shop!

You can probably find de-fogger paste at a scuba shop.

This stuff works pretty well to prevent fogging:

This works too, though in my experience, not as well:

Ibought a pair of ski goggles at ****'s Sporting goods for $15.00 and they
work great. I also breathe throught my mouth and had no problems with
fogging.

Yo Jim,

Someone recommended a small bit of shaving cream on the glasses works
wonders. Oops..I mean ya gotta rub it in and polish it off so to
speak. The poster said it worked better than the purchased anti-fog
stuff.

Cheers,

Slow Joe Recumbo

I certainly hope the original poster visited the web site before giving this
a try.

The site is legitimate. I have seen "Cat ****" [TM] anti-fog lens
cleaner for sale in most outdoor equipment stores, and most of the mail
order retailers (e.g. REI) would like stock it.

Why the company chose the brand name "Cat ****" I do not know. It is as
bad of name as "Snafu Rim Job" [1] and "Maxxis Hookworm" are.

[1] The tire John Harper used (uses?) on the front of his Nils Palm Wind
[2].
[2] The Wind is a clone of the HPVelotechnik Streetmachine.

Thanks everyone! I think I am going to try ski googles and one or more
of the anti fog suggestions! Thanks again.
