Zoetrope replied to Steve Tanner's discussion 'Halloween Costume: "Cyclist" and "Bad Driver"'"I think it was a couple years ago on a ride where this guy decked his bike out to make it look like a car, similar to what you have done. He had a tailpipe that he rigged up with some kind of smoke emitting device, a license plate that said…"

Thunder Snow replied to Steve Tanner's discussion 'Preventing glasses from getting fogged up in winter riding'"I use a product with an odd sounding name, Cat Crap. It's a wax you rub on and buff on ski goggles and I should think it would work on glasses as well."

I haven't done much off-season riding, but would like to do so this fall/winter. I wear eyeglasses, and have found that whenever I bundle up for colder riding with a scarf or something, my glasses tend to fog up because of the way air is channeled over the face. Any tips or products/solutions you've found that would allow me to actually, you know, see while riding bundled up in colder weather? :) See More
