I don't have a solution, but I feel your pain... As a passenger in the back of a huge late 70's cadillac, I caught a bumble bee in the face at about 75 mph. Poor little dude got sucked in and pegged me below the right eye. Knocked my head back, had a welt from it. In subsequent years, when I bought a motorcycle, I got a full-face helmet. No need to repeat that. Head still snaps back when you hit a big bug, but no welts ;) . Bill Marshall 85 GL Tiico Bradenton FL |
