Curious if you got any eyewear when riding? I've known a few who wore goggles. I haven't tried it and I am not sure if I'm going to like it. Thoughts?
 
Imo riding without proper eye pro is just asking for trouble. I'd look for something with an ANSI Z87+ impact rating a lot of riding glasses from brands like Wiley X have a foam gasket that seals out wind without the bulk of full on goggles. What kind of helmet are you running, a full face or something more open?
 
Goggles or riding glasses make a huge difference especially for wind, bugs, and especially dust. If you want something comfy, I say check out Birdz Eyewear for budget friendly options. Maybe start with a foam-padded pair and see how it feels on a short ride!
 
Definitely. Protecting your eyes is essential. The ANSI Z87+ standard is where you should start. Brands like Wiley X, Oakley SI, ESS, and Bobster offer great riding glasses. The foam gasket designs from these companies provide wind protection without the heaviness of goggles.
