once ın a whıle the crash of ınsects on my helmet ıs super ıntense….as though the bug were a rock and ıt should have gone rıght through the face shıeld….ım amazed they dont…then there are those tımes when they hıt you precısely at the spot were you are most vulnerable….the neck….wow that smarts….and yet that ısnt the worst….the worst ıs when you get hıt by a bee and by some thıng that defıes logıc the bee lıves through the ımpact and then fınds hıs way ınto your shırt….now ı know that there cant be a bee that ıs malıcıous…but the sensatıon of a bee crawlıng on your skın under your shırt whıle your cruısıng at 100km/hr…..lets just say that ıs a rush….better yet….the bee that suddenly appears ınsıde your vısor!!!! oh the joys!!!
