I hate bees and wasps, especially when they hit you right under the chin, drop down the little gap between your jacket, shirt and chest, drop down to your belly and sting you by your belly button while going 60 mph. Not fun!

Well, you’re posting about it so I assume you didn’t wreck!

[Jim]

No, but probably was a sight, driving with one hand , trying to pull my shirt tails out of my pants and rubbing my belly .

Remember it happened to me many times though it was 4x…
1. Wasp entered helmet and stung me on the cheek. Luckily I was quick enough to take it out before it could encrust its sting in ma’flesh – swore
2. Two bugs copulating when both of them dived (must have been part of the ceremony-lol) and one just hit me again on the cheek – swore and itching
3. A big fly hit my pupils
3. An UFI (unidentified flying insect) hit my pupils again

plus lil insects buzzing in the aound the ear or got crushed in my eyes…ewwww

why my visor was open? because it was scratched all over from a recent asphalt sliding…

A good argument for a full face helmet (with a non-scratched-up visor) and gauntlets.

I’ve been riding 4-5 days a week for 3 or 4 years and never had any problems with insects (except the odd splat on the visor when out in the sticks).

A fleecy tube for the neck helps too (especially for keeping out the cold).

dang! after 2days i noticed I put 2x no.3…lol i was out camping with my friends..seaside..well just recalled a romantic moment when she laid her head on my neck collar, embracing me with the fatal kiss of…itching and swore!!! she was crossing the road but i didnt see her coming and she too didnt apparently!wow sting at first touch(love at first sight) and reciprocal convention. well she was dressed in yellow..anyways i saw her coming, but couldn’t do anything. she hit me, i hit her, obviously and that was it. well after 15km i say she got stuck on my neck collar and well…it was romantic..lol haha a wasp. how ino it was a female? a male would have been turned into waspsoushi. anyways you know wot, in 3 days i have slept only 4hrs!!!!

Got my first accessory today…. kinda got a kick out of it after the wtf was that moment. It hit right near the collar bone….leaned a bit to look in mirrors and sure enough, perfectly planted on my red shirt was the most vibrantly colored, and newly deceased, bumble bee attached to my shirt sprawled in the “Oh $H**” position. Have to admit…. at 60 mph I thought it would hit harder then that…. Beetles definitely hit harder (not the VW kind, those are easier to dodge)

I had a Japanese Beetle hit my safety glasses (3/4 helmet) at MSF class and it hit pretty hard. I was glad I had the glasses on.

ow i suk more than you do them coz i ride 7/7 almost all day since 6years..maybe i shud slow abit and let the insects cross the road…anyways there exists no non-scratching(whatever) visor…they’ll scratch!! if you have the guts to scratch yours purposely, then it might be non scratch-able and if not..hehe…if nothing happened to someone, then he has learned nothing…bad experiences and whatever bugginjuicystinky are lil experiences to learn..i bet you dnt know the feeling of my insects encounter above?! that’s it!hehe..

June bugs are the worst! When they hit you on the highway it feels like you just got hit with a paint ball.

[BoOZe P-ti Motard]

copulating ones are the worst!!!! they dive and swerve and every sec you think you are avoiding them, they are ditching at ye and well, buy 1 get 1 free!!!fak…but big ones are better than dozens of tiny.eh?

got a wasp into my boot, sting into the ankle. At first, I though I burned myself on the exhaust pipe. Since I was in traffic, I had to sustain it for a couple of minutes until it was safe to stop. Gave her enough time to squeeze a last bit of poison into me. Today, my ankle looks like a dough.

[BoOZe P-ti Motard]

then add some nuts and bake it to have dough nuts!!!! :DDD

but this also i have been through and recalled in my childhood when i was playing football with my friend, the wall and remember the latter kicking the ball to a bush and when i went to fetch the ball, i felt some cool sensations at first then the pain and etc and guess how many there were? At least 7 on each foot and the sting marks are here, 2-3 lil tiny non remarkable dark spots…. now how you call that??!! mega dough?lol
PS: had to pee on the stings!
pee=alkaline=neutralize acid=wasp sting

pulls out at the gas station, parks in the middle, starts jumping on one leg while taking the boot and the sock off from the another – I just hope that my full face helmet is sound proof from the inside – this was family friendly place . I cant even immagine what would have happened if I started peeing on my foot there, in a broad daylight.
