Did a search and didn't see anything. What was the deal with Tomac's goggles?

I was wondering the same. I figured they would have asked on the podium or press conference, but nothing?
It seemed like he still had tear offs, so my only guess would be dirt or sweat got into them.

They figured nobody would care about it because they only mentioned it 38 times during the broadcast so they figured they wouldn’t ask and sent both of the journalists in moto out to find out who sponsors Tomac instead of asking a question that someone would really care about but who are we to ask such dumb questions we should be glad we just get to watch moto.....,

He was playing the announcers to make people think about his signature oakleys

He actually wears these under his goggles and has been trying to hide it from the competition.

You guys get that when I'm at the race I'm not watching it on TV, right?

I wasn’t talking about you, the knuckleheads that interview them on the podium! They have a headset on but it seems no one tells them anything to ask!

Aldon baker will sell them for $400 and say they reduce arm pump

They explained it perfectly during the race.. you can ride 1000 times and be fine.. but every 1001 time you go out you will get a rock in your goggles.

I'm surprised teams don't have a tracker for this known issue. That way they can always be prepared for that 1001 ride.
