Are Modular Helmets Safe? My Personal Experience and Guide Are Modular Helmets Safe? My Personal Experience and Guide Hey fellow riders! I've been riding motorcycles for years, and one question that always pops up in conversations is: "Are modular helmets safe?" I've personally wrestled with this question, especially after needing glasses. Finding the right balance between safety and convenience is crucial, and I wanted to share my experiences and what I've learned along the way. I hope my journey helps you make an informed decision about your own motorcycle gear. My Journey with Motorcycle Helmets For a long time, I only wore full-face helmets.

But things changed when I started needing glasses. Constantly taking off my helmet to put on or adjust my glasses be...

It was a whole new world! Suddenly, leaves on trees were sharp, and street signs weren't just blurry blobs. But like anything else, eyeglasses need replacing eventually. The question is, how often? I've been wearing glasses for years now, and I've learned a thing or two about when it's time for a new pair, how to save money, and what to look for. My Eyeglass Journey: When is "Too Old"? For me, the need for new glasses usually creeps up gradually. I had a pair that I loved. The frames were perfect for my face, and they were comfortable.

Why Don't More People Wear Sunglasses in Singapore? My Eyewear Journey Why Don't More People Wear Sunglasses in Singapore? My Eyewear Journey I've always been fascinated by the little things that make a place unique. Recently, I started wondering why I rarely see people in Singapore wearing sunglasses, especially those stylish magnetic clip-on sunglass lenses. It’s a question that’s been bugging me for a while, and I decided to dig a little deeper and share my experiences. My Observations and Questions I noticed this trend a while back and found it quite puzzling. I wear prescription glasses, and the thought of shelling out extra cash for custom sunglasses always seemed like a hurdle.

I even questioned myself about why I don't wear them when I'm back visiting. I lived ...
