wtf? i never wear goggles on the off chance a bug might hit it hard and crack the lens and cause me to loose my eyesight:rolleyes: . jk yea i hate seeing people with no helmet, no goggles is exceptible, but come on people if you ride with other people you are going to get mud in your eye at one point. or you can just wear goggles

[dirtbike&quad]

i always wear my helmet now but i barely ever ride goggles. it was my own dirt too (dust) not someone elses...if i go to ride with people ill wear goggles but this was not the situation

You think your funny saying something like that? Ignorant.

[54warrior]

I wear goggles all the time, the dust kills my contacts.

Went to the very last Cochranton Poker Run, there were like 8000 quads there, rained like crazy. I made it about 1 mile in and my goggles were caked. i took them off and rode the entire 30+ miles without them, it was terrible. Should have had a second set


Hope you get better soon.

[dirtbike&quad]

yea i regret it now teribly and will almost always wear goggles from now on as long as im not just going up the driveway! this sucks


went to the doctor today its not getting any better. he put a bandaid in my eye its like a contact. so another $40 copay. then my new medication is $60 so thats the 40 and 40 from yesteryday (copay and med) and then 100 today thats 180. then friday morning i go in for another cheackup. thats 220 right there.

Haha it wasn't trying to be an *** im just saying usaully protection is cheaper then getting injured. All that matter is that you will be ok and you learned your lesson!

[Flyin-Low]

I leave my goggles in my helmet.. (don't leave them with the band tight around the helmet though or the strap will go all wrinkly and ugly)

I've just gotten used to riding with them and never notice they are even there.

Good luck with the recovery.. things like that can be a b1tch!

Sorry man, but I know some people who really did lose things in Vietnam and I personally dont think that should be joked about.
