I've hit swarms twice without a sting. I hope the third time's not the charm. It sure messes up the bike.

50 mph, Hornet goes into my right ear.............very hard to concentrate while pulling off to the shoulder and riping off my helmet. My ear swelled to twice it's normal size for about 3 hours. Ear plugs.........Good!

Same thing here! I was at a campground and thought I just head over to the showers, only 1/4 mile away.

Never will wear shorts riding again!

Stung in the knuckle right through my leather glove at 70 MPH. As near as I can tell that little feller and me must of been heading in the same direction but I was going faster than him.

Got one on the face shield the time I had a full face helmet on - sounded like i'd been shot - got to look at the bee's butt the rest of the ride.

Got one in the teeth once, too, kind of sweet tasting...
