Bugs
The first year I rode my Spyder much was a banner year for "Love Bugs" here in East Central Florida. I was washing bug guts off :spyder2: after every ride no matter how short. I'm an ATGATT rider, gloves, jacket, long pants, boots and full face helmet. One beautiful May morning, I decided to take a ride. I was about ten miles into the ride, but fortunately not far from home when I hit a monster swarm of "love bugs" my visor was so gunked up, could barely see. I was able to get home safely, but it took hours to scrub those little buggers off every inch on :spyder2:that faces forward. My riding jacket had to be hosed down with the jet to get them all off. Two years later I still find the ocassional bug part. For reasons known only to God and Mother Nature Love bugs swarm in May and September every year. This past May there weren't too many, but every time I see one I pray they aren't too thick. They seem to like roadways to meet and greet.
