With all this worry about helmet/glasses mount rearview mirrors, has anyone
out there considered bicycle mount mirrors?

I've used a Mirrycle mirror for a year now and have absolutely no complaints.
It has a much wider angle of view than the head mount mirrors, is less likely
to get out of adjustment and much easier to correct when it does, and doesn't
get in the way like bar end or helmet mount mirrors.

It's a bit of a pain to put on if you don't have Dia-Compe style brake levers,
but once on and adjusted it becomes just another dependable part of your bike.
I never have to worry about it, and as a result I use it more.  It's also small
enough to avoid the Quadrophenia Vespa effect on observers.

Highly recommended.
