You could use a sweatband like tennis players wear.
My commute has been very short this week because I've been having chest pains. I always take the train most of the way in the mornings but usually ride the whole 8 miles back home in the afternoon. Since I've been worried about my health I've been taking the train both ways. Yesterday I got a clean bill of health from the doctor (still waiting on blood work but everything else looks great) so I think it's just a bad case of heartburn. Today I'll be back on the horse and I've even got a new route planned for my ride home. I'm getting excited about it already.
Update: The ride home was great except for a couple of incidents. First, I was on a 4 lane street, in the right lane, within 2 feet of the curb. A couple of cars passed me by straddling the right and left lanes. They wanted to get back to the right lane because an 18 wheeler was up ahead in the left lane. Then a bus decides it wants to share the right lane with me. Scared the crap out of me because he came within 6 inches of my handlebars. He didn't break into the left lane at all and there were no cars beside him. I got as close the curb as possible but it was still too close for comfort. From now on, I will take the exact center of a lane unless I'm on a two lane road with wide enough lanes for sharing. The other incident was me riding down a residential street and a suburban came from the opposite direction. He got over a little because of parked cars on his side but then he just kept coming straight at me. I had to get down into the gutter to miss him. He was making a big swing to fit the behemoth into his tiny driveway. Either he didn't see me or didn't care. I'm starting to really connect with Chris L.
