Re:A new definition for pain. 4 Years, 7 Months ago  
Pretty intense story's and painful so this wont compare. However for those with mini-apes or apes will know when wearing a short sleeve shirt in the country you are bound to get something flying into your sleeve....arm pit.....got stung by yellow jackets 4 times in one day on a poker run. Both arm pits and multiple times down each side of the ribs. Always carry benadryl and some sting-eze....LOL

My cousin in the early 70's was riding a Triumph Bonneville up thru B.C. and took a humming bird to the forehead. Knocked him clean off the bike. Bike went about 50 yards and went into a ditch. Nothing broken on him or the bike, just lots of mud and grass.

Anything bigger then a june bug will almost kill you, or wish you were dead.

Re:A new definition for pain. 4 Years, 7 Months ago  
Holy smokes I'm laughing still. Sorry about your sack sting, I could not imagine! The worst for me was on a the Louie Run about 5 years ago I'm with a pack of people coming down RT. 528 on my V-Star 1100 Bobber with 13" apes so my arms are somewhat up in the air, we're going about 60 mph when all of a sudden I feel a nasty sting in my tricep, a wasp flew into my sleeve, he hit the back of my arm a total of 4 times! It was my left arm so I hit the brakes, my wife smacked into me, came to a complete stop smashed the wasp with my hand and ripped my shirt off! Everyone behind us in the pack though I must have been losing my mind the way I was yelling.

He right… A bee in the bonnet is really bad. But, it sure beats an alligator or a bear or a hand grenade

Back when I was a teenager, I was riding my R1 on the expressway in shorts with NO SHIRT! Insert squid comment here Was going 90-100 or so, and got nailed with a rock in the chest. That one drew blood
