I tried the clean and spray-on wax this morning (as recommended by motorcyclists). It didn’t seem to help in the haar and fine drizzle. Again, I couldn’t see much.
Turning my head to the side didn’t clear the water either – obviously not pedaling furiously enough, although I began to get a bit disorientated when I rode faster!
I stopped and squirted my glasses with water from my water bottle, which helped, but I only got a few hundred yards down the road before things were as bad as ever.
I nearly ran into three sheep. Thankfully they could see better than me, and ran across the road while I was trying to determine what the funny shape at the verge was!
I tried wiping my glasses with my glove which helped, but it’s easy to miss, and it’s not always possible to ride with one hand off the bars. I think I used to have a rubber squeegee on my motorbike gloves, but I don’t think it’s a great solution for cycling.
I’ll try some of the other products mentioned, but I suspect I have to try and stop water getting to my glasses, although I’m not sure how. A pair of windscreen wipers would be good, and I seem to remember having seen such a system…!
