hi, i'm really suffering from sweat in my eyes. if i wear a cap its ok as the sweat drops off the peak, but in the summer heat :wink: my head gets too hot with a cap on. the pros don't seem to wear headgear under their helmets so do they just suffer?
any suggestions welcome!
i hate hills (cos i'm fat)

    ride faster so the sweat runs to the back of your head rather then down your face :D:D

    Just kidding.,, a headband or a cross section of the sleeve of a T-Shirt works if you have any old ones laying about

    Summer heat !!!!! you can't be in the UK to say that this year, I've only ridden twice in a short sleeved shirt sdo far this year.

    Have you tried some Vaseline on your eyebrows? That is supposed to divert the sweat around your eyes and down your cheeks or off your face.

    Like a streak of lightnin' flashin' cross the sky,
    Like the swiftest arrow whizzin' from a bow,
    Like a mighty cannonball he seems to fly.
