Looking to buy a pair of glasses and wondered which ones were the best to get. Not looking to spend lots of money on them but do want good quality. Any recommendations with their cost? Does spending more money actually get you something really superior? Thanks in advance.

    You can't go wrong with Oakleys.

    Although they are expensive so you might get called a poseur.

    I will recommend not to get the Kuota ones, they seemed like a good buy but i felt about 50 ft in the air with certain lenses, i don't bother i just squint. Hit the brakes a bit when a beastie decides to suicide bomb my eyeball though........

    I got 2 pairs from M&M Sports on the Internet a few weeks ago. They weren't advertised as cycling glasses but they both wrap around and protect my eyes and, best of all, they were under £10 a pair. I think the brand is the charmingly named 'Kangeroo Poo'. I've already dropped 1 pair and sweated profusely over both of them so £10 a pair is enough for me.

    Like a streak of lightnin' flashin' cross the sky,
    Like the swiftest arrow whizzin' from a bow,
    Like a mighty cannonball he seems to fly.
