Can anyone recommend some decent eye protection...wraparounds, sports goggles, etc?
There are lots of Cycling specific googles out there and any GOOD LBS will carry a stock of different types. Couple of suggestions though- Try them on before you buy and wear them for at least 5 minutes to make certain they fit. The other suggestion is to get a pair with interchangable lens's to cater for differeing conditions.

I use Rudy Projects and find they are fantastic for me. Bit on the pricey side but have had them for over 8 years with no problems- In fact I like them so much- I bought 2 pairs with different lens types so I don't have the hassle of changing them.
