And the winner is...

Let me first apologize for taking so long to post the results to this incredibly important and life changing contest.

The reason for the delay is that at first I went and bought a sun visor (which is what most people voted for). Unfortunately, I ended up hating it. Anytime the wind came from the wrong direction it would smash into my face and cause me to be unable to see, which turns out is not the safest thing in the world. In general, it was also uncomfortable. Finally, it was too dark to see through at night which is when most of the bugs are out in the first place.

I, therefore, went and bought the second most voted for item which was the traditional face mask. I like it. It works well. I've only swallowed one bug since buying it and that was because I forgot to put it on one night and was singing on my scooter. Open mouth + no face mask = swallowed bug.

So, without further ado, here is a picture of me in my leopard print, multicolored face mask atop my recently named scooter 小红 (xiao hong) which translates "little red." (One of my amazing Chinese friends named it and will no longer allow me to just call it "my scooter").
