I now wear a mirror when riding

[Gowest]

I have always seen people wearing mirrors while riding their bikes and always thought "not me"....no way....so not cool.

NEVER AGAIN!!! I purchased a mirror on someone's advice for a trip out west -and I will never ever ride without a mirror if possible. I can't stress enough how much safer I felt on the road. I took it out once I got home and was AMAZED and how much more secure I felt while riding my normal routes - I never was a "nervous" rider - but now that I see what is going on behind me - maybe I should have been!

I don't care how "dorky" a mirror looks - I am a life long convert now. Even my racing leg-shaving hubby tried one and he will be wearing one regularly as well.

this is the mirror I tried - it mounts on my glasses and I did not notice any distortion - nor does it move around. It is very easy to adjust and does not interfere with your vision. It is less than $20 and could save your life.
