Yeah, but, JC.....I found it almost impossible to wear the full helmet this summer down here in the extreme heat.  But, they're nice beginning about now.  har!  spyder

Spyder.....extreme heat?  When it's raining?  Just how hot of rain do you get down there?

We live North of Spyde, but when it is raining here on a hot afternoon, it can cool down ten - fifteen degrees.  When we start in the low triple digits, it is still hot.  But, JCZ, if one can plan for getting caught in the rain, like you, I prefer to do it in the Noland.  Don't always get to plan for rain.

Hey JC.....I know you can remember your time in the military here in coastal NC......hot and humid in the summer and then it rains all the time (or it used to before this summer).. ....har!  spyder

I hear that you guys are having a fall summer.  We're just the opposite......for the past couple of weeks it's been about 10F cooler than normal.

We're well used of the heat but you guys have the humidity which makes it even worse.  I thought you were getting that mixed up with rain.

Well, I've done just that......in South Vietnam on a regular basis.  har!  spyder

History:

"Harley riders worldwide know us for The Original KD's sunglasses.  This little black framed sunglass was originally worn by hardcore bikers in the 1950s.  They have remained the #1 selling biker sunglass because they stay on your head and keep the wind out of your eyes by fitting tightly on the temples and nosebridge.  The new, improved KD's are now lighter in weight, have longer slimmer arms for better peripheral vision, fit more comfortably under a helmet, and have fully wired temples for extra strength and adjustability.  There are now 20 different lens colors."

I ride in the rain when I must, have never had to stop due to fogging, lack of vision. I use Oakley TWIN lens ski goggles over my prescription glasses. I buy the model that is for overglasses (they have convenient notches in the sides to clear your ear pieces). The twin lens system stops fogging, I like the amber low light ones better in the daytime and of course clear at night. The goggles are surrounded by foam, i take the lens out when i get the new goggles and spray the foam with scotchgaurd then reinstall the lens. They really work excellent, the strap has some sticky crap that keeps them from slipping off the back of your helmet, they tighten securely and do not leak. I did 400 miles with this set-up on I-75 at 70 - 80 in downpour from Atlanta coming south and had no problem. Caution, DO NOT RUB THE INNER LENS TO CLEAN or use any kind of cleaner, it is treated and will scratch/streak easily. Rinse and daub dry with soft microfiber.

Do you know the model? I just looked on the Oakley site and there are quite a few choices.
