...same goes for rocks!!
:D
Rocks hit my legs. I'm with you on the bugs though - but not just the small ones!
When I ride on the MUP by the creek near my house in the evenings I hear & feel flying insects hot my face, my glasses (now that I have cycling glasses), and of course in my mouth or stuck to my lips due to lip gloss/balm. I always appreciate the extra protein.
Yup and so fun since you are in the aerobic stage you usually have your mouth open. I know when approaching creek crossings/bridges to definitely close my mouth! :D
I must have some strange luck or something. They've bounced off my lip, but never hit me in the teeth or anything. The eye, on the other hand...and the little pests always find a way around my glasses!
Shoulders
Don't want to think of how many bugs I've swallowed. Fresh protein anyone? :rolleyes:
Have been smacked in the throat. Dragonflies hurt too.
I got one down my cleavage once :eek: I think that was worse than in the mouth!
That happened to me the other day!! Unpleasant... but comical after the fact.Quote:

They get stuck to my face alot, too.
Or where bees hit you. In the mouth.

I may not leave this up indefinitely. :cool:
ow ow ow ow ow, maillotpois. Hope it improves quickly!
Yup. If my jersey is unzipped or I have on a tank top on a ride, I think sometimes my bra is a collection scoop for bugs.Quote:

Wish you a speedy recovery if the bee sting is recent.

A bee flew into my helmet through the vent. Luckily, I have hair :p and normally wear a skull cap. Still, made an emergency stop popped off my helmet and ripped off my skull cap. I don't want a bee sting on my head or anywhere on me!
Eating bugs is not my favorite things.
Been there, done that. The next worst is when they get in your helmet, and sting you in your scalp. You get the whole load of venom!Quote:
