Went to the Star Trek museum. I have a pic of all of us in the bridge, but I have to scan it.

Then, we went on another road ride. The wife hasn't gotten her Bianchi back yet, so she had to ride the MTB.

prolly wind resistance concerns. i don't mind though, cuz i get more workout that way.

i throw down on lycra with no visor some times. i go faster. at least i think i do.

It's tough to see under the visor when you're on the drops on a road bike.

For the same reason you wear the arms of your sunglasses on the outside of the helmet straps. It's the roadie fashion.
