I wear 3/4 helmet and keep a face shield in saddlebag. Also use it on extra cold mornings and drives along the lake at night to keep my teeth clean.

Even with my windshield I need additional eye protection when the rain really starts coming down.

I've Got a pair of wraparound, clear, saftey glasses I picked up at either the Home Depot or one of the big box stores...Don't remember. They were reasonably priced, and since I have a habit of 'forgetting' things like that, I don'tfeel too bad (orhave to turn around and ride fifty miles to get them again).

What is "rain" ???

Here in So. Cal we only got 3" of the stuff this year....

If it ever were to rain again, I carry some clear safety type glasses when wearing the 1/2 helmet; but hopefully would have opted for the modular full face before teh trip.

Goggles, used them on a long ride from Columbus to Jekyll Island, rained almost all the way. My glasses fogged up something terrible. Fished out my goggles and they worked great.
