Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Since when is "antifreeze" a Tour de France color? Or are these the "sprinter's glasses," with yellow and polka-dot versions to follow?

I don't know if they're really a Tour color, but Oakley always comes out with a funky color before the tour.

Really?! Honestly?! I've been so amped on the 2009 Tour Radars after getting my 2008 orange ones, I'm disappointed. I saw these at my shop today I thought they were regular edition, bummer.

The 07 and 08 editions weren't official tour colors either...

I think these are for O'Grady I saw him wearing em at the tour.

A lot of riders were wearing these. Haussler, Pozatto, Napolitano, O'Grady, etc.

Ah I see then they really aren't like the previous two years... 07' was David Millar and 08' was Cancellara.

Plastic squirt gun green.

I like the frames but not the lenses. Should be Frog Skin reflective orange.

That's a good point, I thought he was doing the new Frog skins. Anywho they're cool but that's a $120 or so I won't be spending.
