Went for a spin today, pulled out onto a nice strait and pulled the throttle open. As i got to a nice speed I decided to open my visor and pick my nose or scratch it, same thing.
Anyway as soon as i lifted my visor a fat juicy fly splats strait into the center of my specs. I'm sooooo glad i'm blind and need specs otherwise that would have hurt ![]() Anyone else had a run in with a pesky fly? I know there small but there good at aiming.

Something hit Pete when we were out in the South of France, riding back one night to our hotel. The impact actually rocked his head back, and whatever it was left yellow goo and egg-like gubbins all over his visor
![]() I hate to think what might have happened if he'd had his visor up ![]()

I saw someone hit a pidgeon while doing about 60 . It smaked him right in the visor and looked like someone had just chucked up a big hanfull of feathers .
I had to stop and wait for 10 minutes to calm myself down from laughing so much . Met up with the guy at hartside an hour or so later to see him still pulling pidgeon remains out of the chin vents on his helmet . |

![]() Same thing happened to a couple of our mates when I exploded a pheasant with my head. They nearly fell off, they were laughing so much...............barstewards! I had mild concussion and whiplash ![]() And there wasn't even enough pheasant left to make a decent pie either! ![]()
