Default Goggles, glasses, windshield?

What protects your eyes from the wind while cruising?

Harley Goggles, no windshield. A face full of bugs makes a great between beer snack.

I have a windshield (which I normally only use when travelling...stays in the garage for day to day riding...), and a set of riding glasses that has interchangeable lenses (dark tint, yellow polarized and clear for night riding), and they also have removable arms, and a clip in strap, which converts them to goggles. I require prescription lenses (well, only if I want to see...), and these have a small insert into which I have a set of prescription lenses. My wife refers to them as my Spiderman glasses. The best $80 I've ever spent.
In colder weather (early spring/late fall) I will go to a full face, but also have a neoprene face mask I use with the half shell helmet unless it is absolutely frigid. Personally I think anyone who rides without eye protection of any type is insane. I can't even count the number of times over the years I've had bugs splat on to my glasses while on a ride. I'm sure I'd have been blinded years ago without it.
