    I"ve done the lip balm thing and it definitely helps. Especially when coupled with a band. I picked up some Bondi Bands at the last race expo I was at. I LOVE THEM. You can use the coupon code ONE for but 3 get one free or FIVE for five headbands for $25.

    Skull caps, FTW! Ever since I cut my hair short, sweat just gushes off of my nearly-bare head and onto my face. It's pretty gross... A wicking skull cap under my helmet really does make a difference.

    Now, if only I could figure out how to wear a head band at the gym and not look like Rambo

    thanks for all the info. I will definitely try the lip balm tomorrow on my ride to see if that helps, and will see if I can find a halo headband or a wicking skull cap in town. I'm going on a week-long bike tour on Saturday so need something in a pinch. I like the bondi bands and the skull caps from crown wear and will look into those when I return.

    Thanks, guys!! I knew I could count on you for help!!!

    Darn you, cascading sweat waterfalls upon thy crown.

    I'm doing a cross-state tour of my own state (Oklahoma). It's a supported tour, although I haven't decided if I'm going self-contained or letting the truck haul all my gear...
    We travel south to north (presumably letting the southerly winds push us, although of the last 3 years, there have been plenty of days with headwinds).
