A few weeks back I went for a quick spin to the airport and back. It was a great day, not too hot, not too cold. When I got there I made a north turn with my final destination being Iona Island. It's a nice piece of road with not too much traffic. I love slowing down around there and enjoy the views, smells and sights of planes landing. I got my visor up and was cruising around 50k. All was well and then bam... I got a bug in the face. I _think_ it was a bumblebee. If you've never had a bug hit you in the face at 50k consider yourself lucky. It hurts like a sob :)
First time this happened to me with the shield up. Not an experience I'd like to repeat. Makes me wonder how the open face helmet users do it. Especially further inland where there tends to be more bugs.
