I used to think these looked douchey but I'm thinking maybe I need one

Anyone else wear one under a helmet? Are they really good for keeping the rain out of your eyes? I hate the feeling of rain pellets hitting my eyeballs, but wearing goggles is not an option when it's that wet.

Also bike hats general.

They're honestly pretty nice under a helmet, or just on its own. I've got pic related and I feel it makes me look like more dorky than douchey. I also don't have a beard and tattoos, and look dorky regardless.

I know that guy. He lives in the same province as I do. He´s an avid recumbent cyclist and rowing biker.

Yep, I always wear a cap when I get on a bike, they're really good for protecting your eyes from sun, and keep water and sweat out of your eyes. Plus, you can wash a sweaty cap a lot easier than a sweat-soaked helmet.

For rain you still need eyewear, no cap is going to keep water from being blown/splashed into your face.

What kind of eyewear do you use for night rain? Day is one thing, I can see stuff even with torrential rain rolling down the lenses, but at night it's impossible between car headlights refracting off the drops and lightless cyclists, joggers, and suicidal pedestrians.

I wish I had a good answer to this, I have to admit that when it comes to that I usually just push my glasses down on my nose and look over them.

I have a merino cap that I wear when the weather is shit, and it's really damn nice.
>>
>>906790

>>
>>906941
You wear them under your helmet tho so who would see em?
>>
>>906942
I usually keep wearing mine in shops n shit once i take off my helmet
>>
>>906944
I don't see the point of them, helmets are mandatory where I live.
>>
>>906945
mostly a style thing for me, but does keep rain out of my eyes and off my head
>>
But does it keep rain off my glasses ?

A wool cap in the winter is so snuggly. I also have a cotton cap for the fall and spring or if it is raining. I find caps get too hot to just wear in nice weather though

It does up to a point

If your drafting you get water spray from the front guy anyway.
