Ok, now that would **** me off !!!! Was out west riding in a long line of traffic and every once in a while you could feel this mist in the air. As we worked our way through we found the cattle truck further up where the mist was coming from. NOT GOOD!

At least it was a cean liquid

I was on the interstate a couple car links back from an ABF garbage truck and kept feeling something like light rain, only it was clear and sunny. Pretty soon the smell hit me and I realized it was garbage juice.

When I got home my wife smelled me as soon as she walked into the garage. I had to shed my clothes right there and immediately wash my boots, helmet and bike, not necessarily in that order.

Did the jacket fit? Didn't you find it strange a jacket was just floating through the air? Man, too bad it wasn't Harley orange! Sorry, had to!
