    I reckon most of you would have had this happen, driving along and a
    Huntsman spider runs across your windscreen and in the process gives you a
    heart attack and has you swerving of the road to find and kiss the SOB. Well
    I was on the bike going through Sth Nowra when I thought a stick insect had
    dropped onto my shoulder so I gave it a flick and next thing on the inside
    of the helmet was one of these enormous spiders. Well the anchors went on
    and up the sidewalk I went and off the bike and trying to get the helmet off
    ( one of these new Nolan ones ) and the bustard just sat there. Finally
    helmet off but the bastard moved was on my face. Flicked him off and and
    stomped on him about 20 to 30 times.........a car following had pulled off
    to see what was wrong, well it must have looked funny to him, he thought it
    was a bee .


    Anyway then had to put the hammer down to catch up with the others and
    finally got them just before Huskison.....anyway had a great couple of beers
    there and then we made the mistake of continuing south to
    Ulladulla.........it was bloody hot, just about the worst I have had it in
    regards to heat. I reckon on the road just north of Milton it must have been
    50c at least.......

    ... then to really piss me off they overcooked by Fishermans Basket at the
    Marlin Hotel in Ulladulla


    And final piss me off event was the Princess Highway was blocked just south
    of Gerringong so we ended up behind a 4 klm snail trail of cars from south
    of Gerroa to Gerringong


    So all up it was a day where I should have left the bike covered and stayed
    at home

    btw.. the rose amongst the thorns was my BMW amongst a pack of Harleys

    atleast you were wearing gloves to get the little fer.

    i got bitten by a bee once, near something that was translated into
    littletown in italian i think they said.

    it hurt, and the only place open was the pub who would only sell me a 1kg
    bag of ice!

    I had a wasp in my helmet once when I was first on my L's.
    I could see it just in front of my nose/mouth where the visor meets the
    helmet. Thought about opening the visor then worried that it would blow up
    my nose or something so I pulled over, flipped open then removed.
    Wasn't happy about it though.
    :p

    Try waking up whilst camping in the bush to find a large rat snuggled up
    on your sleeping bad...
