1st Bugs in the Mustache
« on: May 01, 2019, 10:58:59 AM »
Winter must finally be over....hitting the first bugs of the season on my ride this sunrise.
Made the novice move of trying to flick off the big one in front of my eye.....which just made a long mess of a streak.
Used the dog drinking fountain in town to wash 'em off before going for coffee.
(Is this a 'blog'?. Thrilling aren't they!)

Why do bugs always seem to splat right in front of one of the eyes....never anywhere else on the helmet...Then again I always wondered when I saw at a guy once riding a Harley in a t-shirt and shorts, mandles and just sunglasses would do if a big ole june bug struck him in the face.
