Congradulations...you've sucked bugs!
Maybe they were attracted to that lemon head helmet Aff??
Seriously though mate you got off light! I cut a bee/wasp/whatever in half that day...half for the visior and the rest for my mouth :spudwhat: I mean what's that all about eh? Shearing? Oh...sharing?

PS: Make sure ya use soapy warm water to soften the bugs before washing them off or ya might mess ya paint job(like the spitting stones) and scratch your visor.

"guy who is in reflection in own photograph is stupid"

Me and buggy had the same problem heading to Taupo at night. Not sure which town it was but as we left 'civilisation' we hit a will of bugs so thick i could actually feel the buggers hitting me through my jumper + jacket.

Last week, one of the little buggers bounced off my neck, dropped down the inside of my jacket, crawled under my shirt and stung me on my back. I just hope it was worth dying for, Mr Bee. :shake:

You've ended the blood lines of countless generations of innocent bugs. I hope you're happy with yourself you mass murderer!!! :clap:

Nice 'Splatter' graphics on the Shark helmet!
A very original design guaranteed to earn you the 'Hardcore Rider' cred on the cafe racer scene. :niceone:

In fact, this could be the beginning of a new theme ride: "BugSplat RacingTM" where lap times and total number of bugs felled are a component of your total score. Creative expression/additional points awarded for splat size, colour and texture! :blah:
