These are the best value ear-buds for an iPod that I could find. Spend $200 if you want, but the quality of these $40 Creative jobbies is excellent - find them at Dick Smith.

These are the sennheisers i was talking about. Brilliant 'eh? do yours also have the strap that goes around your neck as well? makes them even more perfect for the task.

Plenty of information and opinions.
You need to look at the noise cancelling type.

JB Hifi have a fairly good range of in-ear earphones. We've had the Sennheiser, Phillips, and TDK in-ear earphones, for on the bike, the Sennheiser were definately the pick of the bunch.
Cheers,
Anne
