Got some good news for you in the future. When you hit about 60 years of age, you ain't gonna hold it for 2-3 hours.

Man! I'd be thrilled if I was only red and sore from a bee. It's an ambulance ride and 6-8 hours in the hospital when I get stung. So, yeah, I hate that!

A bug hit me so hard once it penetrated a pore in my neck. I squeezed it like a zit and the bug (a tiny beetle) came out. It was still alive.

I didn't get it while riding, (I don't think) but I got deathly ill 2 weeks ago and after 5 days of a bouncing temperature (95° to 104°) I decided to go to urgent care. Had tick fever. Never been that sick in my life. Tick was right under my chin in my goatee.

I hate pulling on a glove and accidentally punching myself in the gut.

I hear that, it SUCKS! but at least there is the ride back. I try to look at things in a positive way, even though that work blows it.

Happened 3 times last week. I like my bike clean, but I'm used to washing it once a month and just giving it a bird bath maybe once a week.

Many years ago got hit by a bug big enough to cover 1 whole lens of a pair of Ray-Ban aviators. It was hot, so it dried immediately. took forever to get it off so i could continue. Just about knocked me off at 80mph.
