A pair of those gloves with the little squeegee thing on them. So I can clear the water off my visor. Anyone know where I can find some??

I was riding to work this morning and lately there has been real heavy fog and damm if I almost ran off the road because I could not keep my visor clear.

Every morning there has been heavy fog so not being able to see 20 feet in front of me and having water on the visor is getting to be a real challenge.

Have you put on "Cat Crap"?

$4.99 on Amazon.com (cheaper than eBay)


As for gloves, I can't think of any off the top of my head. And you didn't say what size you wear so I can't post up an eBay search for you. But that's where I would start.

I believe there are a few manufacturers that make these type of gloves. Let me do a little research...

On eBay I did see some snacky Aerostitch gloves with the little squeegee on it, but I think they were Mediums.

Check out the Held gloves at this link. http://www.heldusa.com/steve.htm

They have a rubber strip (squeegee) on the left glove index finger that you can make out if you look closely at the photo. I've never used the squeegee part so I don't know how well that part works. However, these are the most comfortable gloves I've ever owned. The palms are Kangaroo skin so they're thinner than the regular leather ones are with the same protection. You have a better feel with them. A little pricey but quality stuff and not as bulky as the winter gloves.

If you're just looking for a quick fix for the fog, that previous link to the $12 aerstitch thumb wiper thing is probably your best bet.

I for sure getting some cat crap, and I think a short term fix will be getting the Aerostich squeegee that slips on the glove.
