One time had a bumblebee hit me and get stuck between my glasses and my nose. Really tore me up. Also had to get a bird unhung out of my shifter once...not cool.

Not to long after watching Wild Hogs for the first time, my buddy and me are riding down a country road when I had a sparrow fly into the front wheel. All he saw was feathers!

Well, I've been hit by a bunch of bugs through the years, despite farings and windshields, but this was my first "stinger."

Now, I have taken a pigeon in the windshield of my car before. Sucker splattered just like a June bug. I was amazed the glass didn't break.

Yes, as a matter of fact I DID have the right-of-way!

Re:Well, I had a "first" today . . . 3 Months, 2 Weeks ago  
I been stung several times on the bike. The first time was a wasp that got inside my flanel shirt doing about 60 mph. It felt like someone was putting a cigar out on my chest. The second time I had a bumble bee crawl up inside my right pantleg and down into my boot. He waited to sting me as I was going down the on ramp to I55 in Chicago. You never seen anyone stop and jump off a bike faster than me and start punching his own ankle. And once while driving through the woods at about 65mph I got hit in the shoulder with a Cicada, I thought someone shot me. The bigger the bug the bigger the splat.
