Rudy photochromic here. I don't like the idea of changing lenses all the time. Sometimes these might not be quite dark enough, but I like being able to ride out early without having to change to clear (nearly) lenses. And they just stay put.

I have a pair of Optic Nerve Eyeques...love them. They are photochromic, cheap, and have served me well on the bike and running. I love that on an overcast, windy day they are nearly clear and offer protection from flying debris, but when it's super bright and sunny they get VERY dark.

I am a big fan of Tifosi, they are a bargain. I have the Slip (which I use primarily for the clear and yellow lenses which come in handy riding at dusk, and also for really cold days since the vented lenses don't fog as easily) as well as several pairs with photochromic lenses. My favorites by far are my photochromic Vogels. I was kind of expecting the frameless design to look/feel gimmicky, but I love them. They are very light and comfortable and flattering, but best of all, I LOVE not having an upper frame in my field of vision while riding.
This is the model:

I have the ones with the "EC Fototec" lens, which I also love. It has a super wide range (it goes from 56% light transmission to 17% transmission), so it's really versatile for different days/changing conditions.
love my oakley flak jacket;s... they totally rock... although i "only" wear them riding... cause they are too macho for me otherwise, LOL!!
