Stuff to Love

Eye.Protection.Whoa!

Oakley Jawbone.  Nice.

For the first time in 35 years I’ve worn a pair of glasses on the ride I didn’t have to take off.  Every single pair of glasses I’ve ever worn has bugged me.  The single most annoying thing about glasses is the top of the frame;  it’s the only thing I see when I’m bent over on the bike, and it’s always bugged the hell out of me.

The Oakley Jawbone fits snug against my face and tends to stay put.  Up hill, down hill, flat; it was all good.  My vision simply was not obstructed by the frames;  I could see. Imagine that!  The arms on new glasses have always felt as though they were crushing my skull just above the ears;  excruciatingly painful.   These fit comfortably with a light touch along the side of my head.  The vents kept the lenses from fogging; gawd I can’t stand wearing a pair of damn glasses that keep reminding me they’re on my face.

I wore these on yesterday’s morning ride that starts before the sun comes up and could see clearly and comfortably in the early morning darkness and again today in the full sun of the late afternoon; for the first time I was wearing a pair of glasses I almost forgot I had on.

Gracias Amigo!
