Apparently I've never ridden a road bike in Love Bug season before. I HATE Love Bugs!!! They are everywhere, floating through the air, getting stuck in my hair, helmet, under my gloves, in my sandals, sticking to my legs...

The best was the one I inhaled. First, it went down my trachea, and I coughed it up part way, then it squirmed around in my esophagus while I coughed frantically till I actually vomitted and got it out...All this while riding!

At home, when I take the tortoise babies out to graze, Love Bugs are everywhere. I can't leave the door open for a second, or they swarm into the house. My truck is covered with them.
