General info about cleaning up after these pests. Maybe some off you don't know about Hydrogen Peroxide, if not then be informed that it loosens the sticky mess quite nicely, spray, let set about a minute then wipe off with a paper towel. Alternatively you can spray the paper towel and wipe effected areas.

I was surprized at how many bugs had collected on my German crash bars, being 2 inches in diameter and close to the road, the leading edge was nearly covered with bugs. I was judging my bug collection by my mirrors and lights, which had some but nothing like the crash bars, difference in height of a foot or two make a big difference in bug density. The Hy Perox did a great job cleaning the helmet too:D

this picture of Morris still Cracks me up, we had stopped at a little town and had a feed, Morris then carefully and meticulously cleaned his glasses we set of and just got up to cruise speed as we left the towns limits suddenly Morris pulled over, got of his bike shaking his head walking back to me, I enquired whats wrong and he just pointed to his face, meanwhile Cindy had walked up behind and we simultaneously cracked up I mean we were nearly wetting ourselves it was soooooo funny, the picture is not clear enough to show how much bug guts were sprayed over his face and it was just one bug!!!!

I remember when I was young and foolish and didn't wear any gear....I hit a BIG grasshopper right between the bridge of my nose and my glasses....those suckers hurt and are full of snot. Fun trying to get stopped when you can't see anything and feel like you just got shot in the face.
