I wear glasses, but they do not cover my eyes enough to keep bugs out. None the less I prefer to wear rhem to see better. I've been to many cycle shops, but can not find anything to wear over my glasses. Is there anything anyone can suggest? I think I will have to buy those grandpa shades,(more of a goggle). I was hoping to find something a little more cool looking...anyone?

Rudy Project makes a lense insert kit. You get a set of lenses made and they "clip" into a pair of glasses. My dad had them and they seemed to work pretty well for him.

Oakley also makes some very expensive glasses. They are a lense that is built into the regular lense. They are really nice, but expensive, i think around $300-400

You send in your script. For the best coverage you probably want the m-frame with one of their sweep or their lens. Just go try on their glasses and figure out what lens fit you face better. Then send in your perscription. People I know that have them love them and have used them for years and state it is worth the $$$$.

Anyone remember the Bolle's????

any of you guys go golfing? I've been thinking about doing just that... I heard it actually improves your PERSONALITY! Is this true?

I second the recommendation for custom cut prescription lenses from Oakley. Thankfully, I do not need glasses but several of my friends do and they have gone the Oakley route. They are on the spendy side but those that have pony'd up the funds have been grateful that they have after the fact.
