Gu?
Not for this Fatguy.
Read the sleeves. Thats a Hammer Gel.
I can take no credit for the color coordination. That was done by a very talented (on and off the bike) gal on the team. I think she did our website too.

, I just found it funny to see that you wrote it after I was talking about it with a Dutch ex pro racer who happens to be about 190cm only last weekend.

It looks (maybe the angle) that you're almost clipping but not leaning that deep in.

I don't have contacts or rx sunglasses so it helps with the sun.

I do it because I have no hair and don't want spectacular helmet vent hole tan lines on my chrome dome(plus it offers some protection from bees getting in the helmet). Usually turn the bill around backwards on sunny days though.
