Living Legend & Old Fart
We have had very strong winds here in the past few days Going down the bypass this morning into a strong headwind, crouched over the bars, head down and peering through the gap between glasses and helmet, I had a `lightbulb` moment!. Fix onto the bars in a central position a mirror, similar in size and shape to a car interior mirror. Then angle it so that when your head is down and your eyes are in their natural position, you can see the road ahead.
I know there are disadvantages with it - vibration and stability, over-reliance on it in traffic conditions, a low sun bouncing off it into your eyes. Surely in over 100 years of cycling, others have thought about it and maybe patented it.Your thoughts?
