Not sure where to put this... so MC Safety seemed appropriate...
Second time in the last month or so I've had a bee drop into my jacket and sting the poop out of me while riding. Before I could kill it and get it out of the jacket I must of looked a bit self-destructive as I beat myself in the chest senseless, pull over quickly, and try to get out of a jacket as fast as I can... which turns into longer than it ever took at any time previous... must have been the dancing and flailing of the arms...
I can't imagine I can do anything about it. I guess keep my face shield down... but when it's hot...
Both times they hit the helmet in the opening, dropped between the full face bar and my mouth, into my jacket collar, and down to my chest. Two different jackets as well.
Just venting I guess... dang that hurts!!!
