It's funny reading different thoughts and likes/dislikes on wearing glasses on a bike.


I have had glasses since the year dot, I am short sighted and quite badly so.


I rode a bike for years without them cos I didn't like the idea of people taking the piss, You know the sort of thing 'Four Eyes' and 'Oh! Look hes got a bicycle on his nose'
To be honest I'm not sure how I got to the age I am riding blind as I did (What a twat) from age 20 on-wards I started wearing them and you know what? No was interested enough to call names, most of the concern about it was in my own head.


I wear them all the time now and they are the second thing I reach for when waking in the morning, the old fella is the first thing, you know make sure its still there and functioning as it should.


But seriously though, I love wearing my glasses now, I can ride in slow traffic with my visor up and no fear of insects or dust getting in my eyes, I have an 'LS2 FF393 Convert' bucket and its easy to put my glasses on and off.
Haven't really had any problems with steaming up and I wear a tube /snood when riding, again it gives a little protection to my face when riding with visor up. But with saying that I am a fair weather rider so not out on the bike in the cold or wet.
