EYEWEAR -

The right pair covering your eyes can make a big difference in visibility, comfort, and packing size. I prefer a pair of glasses with photochromic lenses(according to light conditions, fade from clear to dark-or the other way around) and foam around the edges. This allows the best of both worlds, no need for an extra pair of lenses or glasses and no wind or elements getting into your eyes. If you wear contacts, these are priceless when heading out on the road.

Another alternative is to get a full-face helmet and take that on trips for eye protection.

Helmet options are totally up to you... Sizing, strength, ventilation, comfort, weight, coverage, style, and price are a few things to consider.

I've got no advice, they all give me headaches.

These next pair of HD goggles are one of the best pieces of road-wear I've ever had. They kick ass, plain and simple. These pictured have photochromic lenses, mine have interchangeable lenses(extra set fits in my pocket). They flex to my face, keep all the elements out of my eyes, and the lenses pop in and out in seconds. The foam has been peeling in some areas, but they're used and abused out on the road-

Throughout the years, I've lost countless pairs of shades while I was on the road. They fly off pretty damn easily when you crank your head doing a fast lane change or passing other vehicles. The goggle back-strap eliminates the need to worry about that. Never thought I'd wear goggles, but these things rule.
