Great one but I thought it might be horse blinders
Boy was I way off!!! I was thinking.... something that brings LIGHT at night..... like some mythological character that rides the moon....
Nice, easy to get, though it may have been the fact that I'm always conscious of my own.
Fun teaser
But some of them are tethered!
I thought it was someone riding a bike at night that has a headlight that works via a generator
Very good job. Really enjoyed the way you wrote it. Very nice, fun and not so easy. Keep 'em coming.
Gosh I was heading for a horsey thing! Good Job
nice and fun teaser!! liked it alot
sorry but that was kinda, ok really stupid!!
between1-10 i give it a 9. nice
really easy but oh well! good job
Very good. I guess I read it right due to my glasses.
I was thinking the answer was my wife until i saw the last line...
that was a good one
that was a good one
Good one !! thanks
Very good one. I kept thinking it was me doing the riding and what was I riding on, but the clue was as plain as the nose on my face. HA!
That was an interesting riddle and it brought back some WONDERFUL memories for me. I'll never forget the first time I wore a pair of glasses! I was 7 years old and all the weay home from the doctor's office I kept exclaiming, "Look at all the things I can see!" It was a thrilling moment. That was at least 30 years ago! Have a wonderful day to all my friends who are 30+ too!
all the WAY home!
Easy but magnifying I caught that little fib by Gayle, we know she is no older than 35.
I've heard this riddle before.
Couldn't get the riddle, even though I can't read this screen w/o glasses!
Doehead, I didn't know you were such a gentleman!!
Riddle--well done.
My brain sometimes--burnt.

Thank you wordmama, you wisdow is showing.
"almost blind"
Really??? In that same sense those who take their shoes off are "almost naked" without them I guess. Oh well.

Nice. Took me a few minutes to get past trying to think of the thing being ridden and instead look for the thing doing the riding.
Doehead, you should know that Gayle and I were born on the same day, so I guess that makes me younger too.
The teaser was quite easy for me, as I now have to wear reading glasses. It was very well written.

very clever, though it reminds me of the time i realized i needed glasses. hate that day . but don't worry, im not evil. (kinda) lol
Hey!! I wear glasses, and I am not almost blind!!! Wearing glasses does not imply that you are almost blind! Otherwise a good teaser.
Cute riddle, got it after reading it twice to make sure I was on the right track. Some very comical comments on this one!
I wear glasses and I AM blind, well... legally blind, even with my glasses.
This was ultimately an easy riddle, but I love the misdirection. After the first lines I thought "it's a monorail or something". Then it flipped who is rider and who is riding, and I got all confused. Then the last line brought everything into focus, and I could go back up to see what the previously lines really meant.
Very well crafted for something so short and sweet.
