Yep, as already mentioned, just wipe any debris out of there with a rag. I also pack a finger- full of grease in the front edge of the bearing, really for the seal instead of the bearing (the bearings are sealed).
Keep the seals working and the water out of the wheel hub and see if you have a motorcycle long enough to 'wear' out the wheel bearings.

Yup, I'm with Brian here. I sometimes wipe a little grease on the front of the bearing itself...just a dab around in the inner race...if anything is going to get in a 'sealed' bearing, that's where it will pass through.
I service a lot of bikes, and I haven't had to change a wheel bearing yet, except for when they must be removed...for powder coating rims, etc.
I've seen the outer seal/dust seal lips get pretty ratty after a while, and the seal collars will get scored as well, so make sure everything is nice and smooth there.
I don't know why it is, but I see these areas often lubricated way too much. A little wipe of grease on the bearings, and another wipe on the collars is all ya need imho.
