well, I am trying to keep riding as long as I can, but it is getting cooler around here. My reason for posting this new topic is for a little advice.
I know there are threads regarding cold weather riding but I can't really seem to find what I am looking for.
I can handle the cold on my body as I wear many layers on top and on bottom. My hands still get cold even when wearing Texport winter gloves, but again, I can handle that.
What I am having the most trouble with is my eyes watering so bad from cold air blowing inside my helmet. I have all the vents closed, wear a balaclava, but the air that still makes it in makes my eyes water so bad that I literally have tears rolling down my face.
What would be the best solution for this? Goggles that kind of "seal" around the eyes under the helmet? It gets tough to see in the dark with vehicle headlights in your face when your eyes are watering so bad. I leave for work around 5:30AM (dark out) and leave work around 6:30PM (dark out) so watering eyes poses a serious safety risk for me and I don't want to stop riding for something like that.
