Perfect way to start a day: 6am walk with -5C and still dark outside. Today is my rest day so nothing else is planned when it comes to fitness.

Sutro Ti with Prizm Black Lenses in Matte Gunmetal Frame

Added Sutro Ti from Oakley® to my collection of cycling glasses as they arrived today. It was one of those “early Black Friday deals”. As much as I said I will not indulge in Black Friday shopping this year since I got everything I need… somehow they got me! Or I have fallen into the trap, whatever you want to call it. But I could not resist a 45% off deal on these beautiful titanium frames and there was only one pair left. These glasses are so light, you don’t know that you are wearing them. Plus they look so good, you can wear them around even when you are not cycling (think: fashion glasses). They are Sutro Ti with Prizm Black Lenses in Matte Gunmetal Frame.

Here are the marketing details from the Oakley website: Classic sophistication meets modern style with the Sutro Ti from Oakley®. Sutro Ti is constructed from ultra-light and ultra-premium titanium with the stunning, cylindrical lens shape that so many have come to expect from Sutro. The titanium frame balances weight and function with a premium aesthetic while the Unobtainium® earsocks and adjustable nosepad provide retention for a no-slip grip.

Features:

• DESIGN - Sutro Cylindrical lens shape • FRAME MATERIAL - Lightweight titanium frame balances weight, function, and premium aesthetics • ALL DAY COMFORT - With 3-point fit • NO SLIP GRIP - Unobtainium® earsocks for a no-slip grip • SEE MORE DETAILS - Available with Prizm™ lenses that are designed to enhance colour, contrast and detail to make the most of any activity

CYCLIQ FLY 12 SPORT

I use Garmin Varia™ RCT715 Rearview Bike Radar with Camera since it came out last summer and I like it. It’s not perfect in terms of video, but it gives me peace of mind in case of an accident on the road. But since it only records traffic behind me, I am also curious about adding a front camera. Cycliq came out recently with a newer version of its front camera. This [Cycliq Fly 12 Sport review] (https://www.cyclingnews.com/reviews/cycliq-fly-12-sport-review/) makes me want to get it, but since I have already Garmin Varia UT 800 front light, I think it would make the cockpit too cluttered.
