NOW you know why I have a fairing on my 'bent!I remember a ride like that... the guy on the recumbent was totally splattered with them critters!Give big space to the festive dog that make sport in the roadway. Avoid entanglement with your wheel spoke.

Ladies Ladies Ladies: ya'll are missing the bigger picture here!! bugs=free protein!!! think of them as free fuel for your ride!
Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand, strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming: "Yeah Baby! What a Ride!"

I don't mind the inadvertent bug ingestion so much when I think about it in terms of revenge: if nasty little midge things are going to dine out on my ankles, serves 'em right if I dine out on nasty little midge things.
<--Insert bugs here.
Drink coffee and do stupid things faster with more energy.
