    I use rainex. It extends the wipe interval to 10 seconds...5x better!

    In the rain I just do the turn head thing. Seems to work OK...

    My Winter gloves have a rubber strip that runs down the right hand side of my left index finger. When it gets too much, I simply wipe it away like a wiperblade.

    Such a simple solution, and so handy. On a pair of relatively cheap Dri-Riders.

    I have a tinted visor that isnt fog proof, I dont really use it as there isnt any Sun in Dunedin, so I might put my clear visor in my bag and put some anti rain gel on one half of my visor and pledge on the other half, and ill let you know how it goes haha

    I use a Skeegee that fits over my left thumb glove & you use it as a wiper. Available from ski shops http://www.daddiesboardshop.com/ski-...le-wipers.aspx

    Will look into something like that, may even create something myself out of an old window wiper blade and some way of putting it on my thumb so its out of the way and will stay on

    Microfibre cloth and water before I ride, no cleaning products. I don't touch my visor when riding.
    Ride fast or be last.

    Nikwax do a product called Visor Proof that beads the water.

    Any bike shop should be able to supply it.

    A good dose of Pledge and the occasional turn of the head at lower speeds.

    We used pledge on aircraft windscreens. They do not have windscreen wipers on smaller aircraft.

    You have your forefinger in a small deer?



    I hesitate to inquire what it is that's "working a treat" for you...
