Anyone wear contacts?

I rode with mine in, no problems at all. I still want to get myself a pair of motorcycle riding glasses, and a strap. Just the smart thing to do, really. Not so much for my contacts, but for the fact that I've gotten a bug in the eye on Magnum before. Not too painful, but it was in the pretzel and wasn't anywhere near 120 mph. I also don't know how mine would fare up front, I was in the 4th row, and had absolutely no problems with my contacts.

I wore my glasses with a strap. No watery eyes, no troubles. I wanted to be able to see whatever view I could, given the height, speed, and drop. There's not much time to look during the entire ride, but what you see coming over the top hat and down the twist does make an interesting view.

My need for speed is second only to my need to be inverted! No wonder Raptor is my favorite!

I wore my contacts which are Bausch & Lomb 2 week disposables and I didn't have a problem. I'd be a little scared to wear a set that isn't disposable in the front row because the wind is INSANE! If I had lost one or both, I had spares in the car, but if I didn't, I'd be screwed because I might as well be blind without my contacts. Toward the back of the train, those nasty headrests tend to block a lot of the wind so it's not nearly as strong.

My son just got his acuvue 2 disposable lenses 2 weeks ago and wore them to CP on Sunday, and on Dragster. We brought along his glasses just in case.

He had no problems with them.
