Cheap off roading sunglasses!

Postby hemingray » Sat Sep 03, 2016 8:17 am

Quite awhile ago I was on a ride and the sunlight was fading and being cloudy, wearing sunglasses wasn't cutting it. Taking them off, I was getting hit with bugs and stuff. It made me think about bringing along a pair of clear safety glasses in the bag for those times.

When it came time to get some new sunglasses for riding, I took a page from that experience and got these dark (UV blocking) safety glasses - they're awesome:

https://www.amazon.com/3M-Virtua-Protec ... _sim_328_1

They come with a detachable foam gasket that helps a LOT in keeping stuff out of your eyes (heck, they're safety glasses, right?). They are easily cleaned and the best part - about 7 bucks! Practically disposable, no worries if they get lost, broken, run over etc. I keep a spare in the bag.

As cool as all those other brands are.....

Now, go out and get yourself some big black frames
With the glass so dark, they won't even know your name
And the choice is up to you 'cause they come in two classes
Rhinestone shades or cheap sunglasses
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah
Wherever I go, there I am

I saw the title, and thought it was spam.
