in that picture with that guy with a huge umbrella, i think he is going up hill. if you catch too much wind underneath the umbrella it will cause too much lift that you will become mary poppins.

best bet is to (recap)

1. contacts
2. visor
3. wipe your glasses
4. no umbrella regardless.
5. that rainGo thingy looks cool. but you will still have rain beading eh? i dunno.
thanks for the tips everyone. i am going to make an appointment with my doctor for contacts. I just bought an 05 tdf Rabobank cycling cap , and as for the umbrella tape/rainGothing, they just look dangerous (is it attached to that guy's neck?)

cheers
