[Bealz998]

I'm in need of some riding glasses as everytime I have been out I get a small fly in my eye and it's really annoying now some I after a cheap pair of glasses if someone could help

Google? Chain reaction? Arco? Wiggle? B&Q? Homebase? DIY shop?

Aldi do some for £2.99 in various tints. How cheap are you talking?

If it's just plain or slightly tinted lenses you're after, try some safety spec from Arco, They've got a range of styles for less than £10, and at that price it's not biggy if you lose them

Ive found some cheap glasses mist up but my Pro Bike kit pair didn't.

Cheaper would be to catch the fly and stop it annoying you.

Put the juice of a potato on your lenses.

All my glasses fog up from muddy fox £10 to my vented jaw bones ,a rub from a product called cat crap available on line does the job,

I've seen divers just spit in their goggles, give them a quick rub and down they go. No misting. I haven't tried it though. I haven't had any problems with my glasses misting up.

If misting's a real problem you can buy anti mist spray from m/cycle shops [designed for visors] but TBH I've never had a problem on the bike.

A little bit of washing up liquid rubbed into the lens should stop misting - works on my bathroom mirror .

I use clear safety glasses commonly used on construction sites. They are cheap, strong and light. Cost between £2 and £3 and come in various lens colours just look for a local safety equipment supply shop (you can cycle to it !).

You can get some from argos with three lenses for about a tenner, they've done me for a year.

Good idea, my motto is don't spent to much on "clear" glasses as they are, well just clear. Unlike sunglasses which offer UV protection, so I would spent more on them but I will not just use them for cycling.

I've found my glasses only mist up when I stop, so easy solution to that one then!
