Cycling Glasses

Cyclists have a lot of things to worry about when it comes to protecting themselves while riding their bikes.
Being cyclists here at Alimay Sports, we don't want to try to tell people what they should do, but we like to share what we like to do while riding our bikes.

Cycling Clothing has come a long way in recent years, thanks to a lot of research and development in the clothes that cyclists wear. Of course, the rise in popularity of cycling has meant that there are more people interested in providing better options for cyclists.

One of the important areas for cyclists to consider is cycling glasses as they provide more than the typical benefits associated with sunglasses.
Cycling Sunglasses provide the first feature that any sunglasses provide, and that is protection for the eyes against UV Light. Cyclists can really suffer from damage to the eyes, even in the UK where the sun never seems to be out.






Cycling Glasses and eyewear provides an almost equally crucial benefit by protecting your eyes from objects entering underneath the eyelid and damaging the eyes.
On sunny days, cycling through the flies is typically the biggest worry for cyclists as they can enter your mouth for an unpleasant experience and taste!
Additionally, while it doesn't have to be wet for this to happen, cycling on roads in the UK very often presents cyclists with a lot of muck, grit and dirt.
When it is dry, cyclists can experience dirt bouncing up off the road but especially when it's wet - if you're cycling in a group then you are going to have a lot of water splashing off bike tyres and onto your face.

Cycling in wet weather will lead to an inevitable mucky face, and while you can wash your face, dirt in your eyes can often cause irreversible damage and so we recommend you wear some cycling sunglasses or some form of cycling eyewear to cover your eyes.

So don't just worry about the best bicycle parts and accessories, make sure you are well protected too!
