http://www.motocinch.co.uk/index.php I must say these look really good for anyone that does a lot of trailering. With a spare set of retainers they could be used in different positions or in different trailers or vans. -- Edited by doug9270 on Tuesday 20th of April 2010 11:50:05 AM

speaking as someone who hates goggles and can't get on with sunglasses under a lid, I wish I'd bothered! Out yesterday, in a soddin' deep rut and a branch poked me right in the peeper. That made me stop a bit sharpish I can tell you and now I've got blurred vision, a bright red spot and the rest is bloodshot....
