#509269 stanag (User) Senior Boarder Posts: 386 Scared 10 Months, 4 Weeks ago   Yesterday I was riding home from work. Going about 35mph on a duel lane road in heavy traffic. I felt something brush my forehead and there was a bee walking along the bridge of my glasses. I wear a full face helmet. This is not going to be good. I closed my right eye and then I felt him go between my glasses and my eyelid. There is no shoulder on this road or place where I can pull over. About 500 yds up the road I spot a place to get off the road. I can feel the bee on my eyelid. When I finally stop, I carefully take my glasses off, still keeping my eye closed. No Bee. I slowly remove my helmet and see the bee fly out and away. The Lord was with me. And when I arrived home the beer was cold.

Platinum Boarder Posts: 1442 Re:Scared 10 Months, 4 Weeks ago   I wear a half shell, and for the colder days there's a little velcro insert that goes into the triangle over each ear. I was cruising a long and a huge wasp smacked me in the face right under my glasses. He then slid to the side and got caught under my ear flap and started crawling around my ear. I about flipped, but like you, no place to pull over. I went about 100 yards up and pulled intoa parking lot, unclipped my helmet, and htrew the damned thing, as i could feel him crawling in my ear the whole time. Fortunately he didn't sting me either. Glad you weren't stung, that could have been ugly.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #509294 jd750ace (User) I'm not IN danger, I AM the danger Platinum Boarder Posts: 7975 Re:Scared 10 Months, 4 Weeks ago   "Glad you weren't stung, that could have been ugly" I look "rugged" enough ( I have rugged good looks ) without being Bee stung in the face!   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #509311 jeckes (User) Hardened Target Platinum Boarder Posts: 1876 Re:Scared 10 Months, 4 Weeks ago   You are lucky.

I've been covered in them at times. Worst for me was being stung on the tongue by a yellow jacket got into a soda can. Once when a kid a hornet stung my eyelid as I entered the outhouse, it swelled shut and hurt to beat hell, my great uncle put some 'salve' on it for the swelling, turned out was preparation h And then the time helping pops with a swarm got nailed 9 times. The absolute worst ones though are the bald faced hornets which sting repeatedly and are very aggressive, don't ask, but it involved a wrist rocket and some rocks.   Logged     Four wheels move the body.
