Saw a Ryne Swanberg pic (sorry can't figure out how to post it) of Trey from behind at the start of the one of the motos.....he was pulling ONE of TWO pair of goggles off that he was wearing.......HE WAS WEARING 2 PAIR OF GOGGLES?!?!?! Anyone have any pics from the front...I can't seem to believe he really was wearing 2 pair.......

It's a lot like this...

You put on one pair of goggles...

Then you put a second pair over the first one. Wink

One pair round your neck and under your jersey, the other on your face.

Surprised this wasn't employed tbh, done it myself many times, why pit when there's no need?

I've never seen that before, probably a bit uncomfortable but smart for sure.

I initially thought he got the idea from me - until I saw the pictures.

I usually wear the first pair the normal way, but I wear the 2nd pair backwards.

Reminds me of horse jockeys, they pile on like 4 pair in mud races, i always wondered why they dont make tear offs for them.

So stoked on how strong Trey came on this season and most of all finished healthy!! Love you Trey! (and Momma C Smile )

It's similar, but Ronnie always has two beers with him on the track.

Funny thing....I saw him toss a pair goggles just after the finish line and took note of the fact that he didn't stop at the mechanics area but came past again with goggles on........I didn't figure out the two goggle set up right away.

Apparently it worked.

I went back to the truck, put on my helmet and two pair of goggles.....you can actually see pretty well. In those conditions I suppose taking a little chance on something isn't a bad idea.
