I lost a pair of Oakley Flak Jacket XLJ glasses at the Kielder 100. They were all black with Yellow lenses(Persimmon Tints). They were lost just after the second water stop. I'm pretty sure it was down that slippery downhill where I had a minor off. They were hanging off the front strap on my Camelbak (yes I know I was asking for it).
I know its a long shot but if anyone picked them up my email is in my profile.
Pretty sure SIP events are still packing up so will try emailing direct later on. Tried them on the day but no joy so they said come back when they have everything collected etc.
Still feeling raw this morning from the ride and the loss!
Cheers
Desperate Bump!
Can't recall seeing any yesterday as we tidied up only ones I seen were Stoo's prescription Oakleys which he should hopefully be reunited with soon.
They may turn up as they go around tidying different points up though, good luck I've lost a few pairs of shades and it annoys the hell out of me.
Cheers Drac.
I checked if any any been handed in to the final sign out yesterday but nothing. To be honest when I fell it was a comedy fall into the trees so I reckon they came of in the trees rather than on the trail.
Thats my second pair of glasses Ive lost now and its infuriating. When will I learn to put then in my pocket or bag.
I'm getting annoyed thinking about it. £20 specials for me from now on.
I lost so black spesh glasses with orange lenses in just where you go through the little gap in the trees on the top of the moor where it was very mossy & like riding in jam.
Can you help?
Can I add to the list a pair of silver framed Oakley M-Frames with a clear lens, lost on a very pine tree overgrown section before the first drink stop (the one you passed then visited on the second pass).
Seems it was an expensive day for a few people!
If I hear anything I'll point or revert back to this thread.
