Tifosi Eyeware

Thanks to my choice new sponsor Tifosi Optics, I now have the latest and greatest sunnys to burn around in. Not only do the Tifosi eyewear look styley and feel incredibly comefortable but the technology behind them is perfect for cyclists…In particularly their Light Night Fototec lenses with a Variable Tint technology range of 85% to 27% light transmission are ideal for mountain biking in and out off trees etc at any time of the day. Tifosi eyeware is definitely worth checking out at    http://www.tifosioptics.com/

As of this weekend I won’t be returning home after the N-Duro instead I’m moving myself, all my bikes, a cook book and Dad’s credit card into a new home. Continue reading ‘Moving to Rotorua!’
