Google Glass solves some corner-case problems for bicycle and motorcycle riders and it would have been a great application for that. But you're right - that's not where it was marketed. It was marketed as "if we build it they will come" and "motorcycle riders willing to ride around looking like Tetsuo the Iron Man" is not a big enough market segment to support Glass.
