Default Poo on your helmet



ANYWAYS

....

After witnessing a bird release it's load on my windscreen today while driving, then getting it valeted (was due one anyway), then having another load drop on my rear window on the .25 mile drive back home...

Got me wondering, how "inconvenient" it would be for it to happen whilst riding!

Worst I've had was a fly of some sort getting in and I could feel it crawing round my ear for 45 mins on the way home from a rideout. Didn't want to pull everyone over (no markers or anything like that) and I didnt have a clue as far as direction went.

So...what's the worst that's happened to you?

I had a small child clip my visor the other day.

That ended OK though. I was with mates, so didn't fancy stopping...

Getting the dummy out of the air vent was a pain though.

Bambi....made a gawd awful mess of my crankcases with its guts, not to mention the blood on my draggins and the boots, took the biscuit leaving its fur in my polished wheel rims too.

Well you did have to ask

Just be thankful you weren't wearing goggles and an open visor when the bike in front flies through a big pile of something nasty...

- Pheasant up my right arm, coming down the hartside on a 125.

- In the underwear coming into a blind dip (at a big pace, front lifting) along the Wear Valley, Pheasant straight across the road.
For the record, properly serviced SV calipers will try and spit you off in the dry
