I live in a city that has a steadily growing motorcycle population. We also get a lot of rainy seasons and storms visit our country on a regular basis. The combination of rain and driving a motorcycle is a pretty dangerous one. While there are water repellent sprays available but it won’t work when you’re driving at slower and regular speeds.

Bikerguard was invented by two Slovenian engineers and is something you can attack to motorcycle helmet visors to make sure you still have visibility even if it’s raining hard. It’s basically a detachable and remote-controlled wiper blade that will wipe off the rain water that can obstruct the view of the riders. It has a brushless motor that will reduce the need for manual wiping of your visor.
The bikerguard unit has a rugged and IPX-6 waterproof design and when fully charged, you get 5 to 15 hours of continuous use. You screw the mounting base through the top of your visor on first use but after that you can just attach and re-attach the wiper when you need it. The remote wireless controller can be attached to any motorcycle handlebar so you can easily turn the wiper on and off.
While of course you can just use the normal sprays and coatings that is readily available for most motorcycle riders, using “good old physics” or wipers are still the best way to go about riding in the rain. It costs around $330 and is available on the Bikerguard website.

Uber is rolling out some new features for the holiday travel season. On Wednesday, it announced a new, super-duper-sized option with extra trunk space for airport travel. In addition, there will be a third shuttle route for NYC travelers.
UberXXL is the company’s new extra-spacious rideshare option. These airport-only rides offer more trunk space and plenty of “comfortable” seating room “for you and your group.” Uber says pricing for the new jumbo-sized service will fall somewhere between UberXL and Uber Black. Upfront pricing will be available in the app.
The service is launching at 40 airports in the US and Canada, including New York’s Kennedy, LaGuardia and Newark. Other participating UberXXL airports include (among others) LAX, SFO, Reagan National, O’Hare, DFW, Miami and Atlanta. It will be available at over 60 airports globally.

Holiday travelers will also have new ways to save a few bucks on their trips this year. UberX Share is launching at eight US airports and two international ones. The service lets you book a trip with “just one other airport traveler” to save up to 25 percent compared to UberX fares. The company says the cheaper rates will apply even if you aren’t matched with a random stranger.
UberX Share for flights will launch at Austin, Denver, Newark, Dulles, Miami, New Orleans and Phoenix airports.
Uber Reserve, the company’s schedule-ahead feature, is adding Flight Capture, which lets you enter your flight info and schedule your trip around it. The app will recommend the best time to leave and ask if you want to adjust your drop-off if your flight is delayed. In addition, Uber Reserve will now give you the option of adding multiple stops when setting up your ride.
After launching in New York City last month, Uber Shuttle has added an extra stop to and from LaGuardia. The $18 shuttle service, which lets you save some money on its preset routes, will now include a third stop at the World Trade Center site at 198 Fulton St. It joins the previous two shuttle pickup and drop-off points: Midtown Manhattan (with stops at Port Authority Terminal and Grand Central) and Penn Station.
Finally, the Uber app for iPhone has added a widget that could shave a few seconds off the time it takes to schedule a pickup. Starting today, the iOS app has a new Home Screen widget that lets you request a ride “in as little as two taps.” You can check the App Store for the update today. The company added a ride-tracking Live Activities feature last year.
