Out riding this weekend with a few folks I met on the road.

One of the guys ended up with a bee in his helmet, which stung him on his chin. Normally, I wouldn't think much of it, but he previously had a severe allergic reaction to a bee sting, and now carries an adrenalin shot with him. Wisely he pulled off the road right away, to make sure he didn't go into shock - Nor was he in a hurry to give himself the shot, as he wouldn't be able to safely ride his bike after that.
Luckily there was a ranger station right there, and he got checked out by the medical folks. he ended up fine, but it was something I'd never really thought of before.

Ahhhhh, the look of defeat:

damm that sucks, i took one to the eyebrow a few years back. not fun.

 

i bet alot of people were wondering what the hell you were thinking about.... lol lol lol with your eyebrow raised.... lol lol lol lol

 

it must of been hovering with its stinger facing back because i poped up from behind the screen and got wacked. how it made it inbetween my helmet and my sun glasses is beyond me. i could see the stinger in me in my rear view mirror. found a cop that had a serrated blade on him and got it out. finished our trip through angles crest and stopped at a store for some ibuprofin so it wouldnt swell up, went home. it sucked but it wasnt bad.

 

I hate bugs[:-] especially when their in my helmet yuk!

 

my buddy had a bug in his helmet, and it crawled in his ear.... we were on the freeway at the time... then i saw him pulling over, i was like WTF is this fool doing.... ha ha ha

 

Wow!! That would make a fun day suck.... Never got hit with a bee, but I had a june bug about knock me out once...

 

This was up on Angeles Crest too. Word is out, the bees are pissed and they're gunnin for us!

 

ha ha ha ha!! LMAO! That's funny right there!
