Longjohn ★ Posted October 19, 2019 Share #1 Posted October 19, 2019 I never knew these existed and have never seen anyone wearing them. It sounds like a good idea if you don’t mind looking even weirder than normal. Have any of you tried these? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The coyote is supposed to do things like hit gates and go sailing through the air, not the roadrunner. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Longjohn ★ Posted October 19, 2019 Author Share #5 Posted October 19, 2019 So he can see the gate with his head down. I’m tempted to keep my head down for short breaks when riding long distances in the drops and the road/trail is clear but then I think of the deer and critters that try to ambush me. If my neck hurts I sit more upright with my hands on the hoods for a break. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I keep my hands on the hoods just aboot all the time, hardly ever in the drops. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Longjohn ★ Posted October 19, 2019 Author Share #8 Posted October 19, 2019 The drops make a big difference in a headwind, probably all the time actually. Did you ever sit upright on a long hill to slow your speed? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't have to look up the entire time. They are pretty awesome. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
