FLCC> Cycling mirrors available (a few)

[Andrejs Ozolins]

FLCCers,

I just got a partial delivery on an order for helmet-mounted rear view 
mirrors with FLCC art on the back of the mirror. These are made by Chuck 
Harris who has been making arguably the best cycling mirrors in the 
world for a couple decades or more -- they're a long-time green product, 
using old bike spokes, recycled plastic and bits of mirrors. I've been 
using one for several years and find it completely indispensable. It 
mounts really solid on the helmet so you don't have to worry about 
bumping it out of adjustment and the pretty big mirror gives a fairly 
big angle of view behind you.

I know there are lots of people who don't want or need mirrors. Bless 
them. For myself, though, it's really irritating to be on a bike without 
a mirror. It has become so natural to be able to glance behind me that 
I'm often startled not to be able to do it when I'm walking down the 
street. I would urge you to give mirrors a serious try.  It just makes 
you so much more comfortable on the road.

This minute there are 9 mirrors available at 15$ each. Pictures are on 
the FLCC website,
