Gross, true bug story...
I had a bug in my eye once and it didn't happen on the bike. I was about to walk into a Borders' Bookstore when i literally ran into a bug -- or rather, it flew directly into my eye. At first I wasn't sure why my eye was burning -- didn't realize it was because of a bug. I wear contacts and thought the contact lense was just being goofy. Eventually, the burning subsided. I thought nothing of it.
A couple hours later, when I was at home taking out the contacts, I found a little black (dead) bug in my eye (narrow, oval shaped bug, about 1/8" long). Bleah!
I ALWAYS wear sunglasses when I ride.
