So I've have been wearing a head band (yeah, not exactly the coolest thing in the world) but that thing gets really hot in the summer, not to mention it gets soaked with sweat after a while. So what does everyone do to keep the sweat out of your eyes? Or maybe I am only sweaty bastard out there.

I wear a bandana like a headband. It soaks up all the sweat and keeps it from going into my eyes.

jruiz · 06-27-2007, 03:50 PM

I wear one of those lycra like head bands with the rubber strip. It routes the sweat around your eyes. I think i got mine from pricepoint

ride hard · 06-27-2007, 03:53 PM

i just wipe the sweat off with my gloves before it gets into my eyes or if i have my goggles on they keep everything outs my eyes

Halo headband. Genius!
Almost as great a technological breakthrough as the Reef bottle opener sandal.

Another vote for the Halo. I've been known to overload those too, but they work well.

Pain Freak · 06-27-2007, 05:52 PM

Halo are the best, but I also use dew wrap's.

That has the rubber strip to divert the sweat from your eyes. I've used one for over 2 years and they work, so it's not really "just a headband".

it works until the rubber strip cracks like it did on mine... now i have to move it around so the sweat runs around my eye....time for a new one i guess

on another note, i've done one ride w/o it and it sucked big time... i sweat like a freakin pig and my eyes were burning the entire ride... i normally bitch like a girl when i ride, but this day i was worse...

CeeDubb · 06-27-2007, 08:28 PM

I just don't sweat...works great!

Dude, when I see that all I can think of is Kip from Napoleon Dynamite.
