    I wonder how many of these I've violated. Like the bags, and the shoes, and the pedals...
    Word...
    I assume this must be the reason why also. Though in some cases the glasses might help. I have my Rudy Project Girls with the temple pieces actually curved around my ears, and wear them under the strap I *think* lol... hafta go put my helmet on right now to verify. My glasses did fly off my head after I crashed head over the bars face first into the road. But, they cut very closely to the corner of my eye. Few mm closer, I would have completely lost the eye. Now, it has permanent vision damage from the impact alone. But, I can't help wonder if my eye would have been scraped off onto the road without the glasses? Never know for sure.
