    Don't have to be big animals to get your attention either. Got hit right in the middle of the visor by a bumblebee once. Made a hell of a racket. And once at night in town with the visor up I got a moth right in the eyeball. Took about an hour before it stopped streaming. And just to show what a softie I am ... I hit a monarch butterfly on my knee at about 90kph wearing jeans and that stung too!

    I always have my visor up in town unless big rain. But one time, in Tamworth NSW I copped an insect in the eye at 40kph that nearly blacked my eye!

    Alan could work for D.O.C. culling Puke's on Rangitoto.
    Better than the bloody short sighted contractors they use at present.
    (PS, Puke's are cool birds.
    Remind me of safety inspectors nosying around work sites)

    When they say Italian steeds pull the birds - I think they mean something else - you need to work on that a bit I think!
