Competing in the Iron Butt Rally isn’t all gut and glory. There’s a lot of thought and problem solving that goes into being able to ride a bike 11 days straight. What GPS model is best for me? What tire gives the best combination of mileage and traction? How much water must I drink to stay hydrated in any given weather condition? These are all important questions that must be answered. Here’s one you might not have thought of: how do you clean a motorcycle face shield while on the move? After all, cleaning your visor on side of the road or at a gas stop is just burning daylight. The photo before you shows two answers to that question. The first is a Nalgene pressurized spray bottle. The second are Windex Wipes. Both have their advantages and disadvantages. Its questions like these that dedicated IBR-types lay in bed at night thinking about.
