New GTs (see Geraint Thomas) came today and were duly worn on their first dinnertime 30 minute ride. I really like the wee that is in the bottom left corner. At least my orbital area will look , even if the rest of me doesn't. Nice touch, as us . #

Mein Mann bekommt ebenfalls eins, das ich auch gestaltet habe. ☺️
