Poor fly

Post by Stinky »

I'm sure some of you have had this before but this was my first time so I was pritty exicted. I was riding along and all of a sudden this massive thing hit my visor (unfortunaly my purple one) and I got all guts on it :D . Who else has had this?

Went through a swarm of green fly once at Slapton, visor, jacket, bike all got absolutely covered. Had to stop and clean them off as I could barely see.
Always carry a cloth and some water now, plenty of room in the boot of the ZRX. :D

I've hit a Bee once, and a moth, and also a butterfly, and they make a right mess.
