  1. What do you lot wear on your eyes to stop flies getting in
    and the wind blowing all the moisture off your eyeballs and
    across your face?

    Specs. Lenses clear, yellow or dark dependent upon
    coditions.

    ===================
    Industrial safety glasses from: www.screwfix.co.uk or from
    Focus / Do-It-All - £2.49p per pair. Excellent apart from a
    little misting when you stop at traffic lights etc.

    BLOC Stealth goggles from Halfords cheap (£15) as shop
    'soiled' -- looked fine to me! Included 3 lenses: clear
    (very slightly tinted), yellow and dark. Very good goggles.
    No scratches after about a year and a half's use (Summer and
    Winter), very light and sit well on the nose.

    As I wear specs, either my normal specs, my prescription
    sunspecs or my contact lenses, with either clear or tinted
    lenses for the conditions Oakleys. I do prefer my 'normal'
    specs though .. 😉

    Briko Switchers and Briko Stingers. They look outlandish but
    the lenses are very good quality.

    Don't they steam up? When I wore glasses, they'd steam up
    just if you went outdoors in the rain and were vaguely warm.

    Plastic or polycarbonate lenses wouln't normally steam up
    unless you were very wet or breathing onto them. If you had
    glasses with glass lenses they would steam up lots as they
    take a long time to adjust to the surrounding temperature.

    I wear RX Oakleys or Cebe Athlon II (with replaceable
    lenses) as I am a spec wearer. I have just ordered some Rudy
    Project Perception for a customer at work. I'm yet to
    inspect them in detail but they seem very smart and well
    priced (for what they are).

    But then you have the problem of the liquid in your eyes
    getting blown out when you go down hills like the clappers
    again. And flies might get into your eyes. And once they're
    in your eyes they could burrow into your brain 😉.

    Depends on the shape of your face, though.

    I tried on every pair in Bonthrone, but ended up with a pair
    of Oakley M frames at over UKP100 as nothing else fitted me
    properly. I've since bought a pair of much cheaper Madisons
    with untinted lenses for use at night.

    I'd wondered how bare-eyes cope with rain and flies, but I
    didn't know about them burrowing into the brain.

    That's because they've already burrowed into your brain and
    removed all reference to it. Devious chaps, flies.

    Yep. I breathed one in the other week. If I hadn't held my
    breath for as long as possible to kill with with high CO2
    concentrations in my lungs, it'd have burrowed into my
    arteries and worked it's way round to my brain by now...

    Oakley Valves (iridium) in the summer (£120 most places),
    yellow or clear lensed Kuotos in the winter or in the dark
    (£25 from Probike).
