I always thought that cataracts could protect your eyes just as well as goggles, and here's the proof!

Great old video.   Has been circulating on other motor sites for a while.

Having turned 80 this year, I am very struck by this video....I wish I had some buddies nearby  around my age to ride with.  I have a handful of great riding  buddies, but we don't live close enough to ride on a regular basis...

Fell down at very low speed on gravel a few weeks ago..Skinned myself up somewhat...Decided then and there to buy a trike and I found "the nicest one" in the southeast IMHO within days and now am enjoying the stability of it immensely...1200 cc Cruiser equipped with a hi quality true trike conversion (not training wheels).  Keeping one small cruiser for around town..
