Update 7/26 - couldn't stand it - bought a Giro Atmos on sale at LBS. Just finished 20 miles, hilly, avg= 16 (good for me). 90 degrees plus, 100+ w/humidity. A BIG diffrence over My Limar F107. I wore a coolmax polyester HEADSWEATS just below the helmet, no skulcap. I noticed a big difference but still the sweatband would get heavy with sweat and then flow (drop) into eyes. I finally learned to lean my head to right, reach up and sqeeze the sweat out of the band and fling it off (kind of like a snot-rocket). I'd do this (at the end) about ever 2-3 miles. I really sweat alot, especially around the head, it almost looks like I just steped out of the shower as I pedal along- Liquid dripping everywhere.
Eyes are burning like crazy as I write this. Using teardrop stuff to avoid irratation.

hooligan - "take a break "? Hey is that allowed?? GRIN
