Yeah, I would bet more than one biker wished that they had a windshield on their bike when traveling through a cloud of love bugs....
DON'T OPEN YOUR MOUTH WHILE RIDING!!
At least love bugs don't bite and are just a nuisance. If they bit like yellow flies do, I'm afraid I would have moved out of Florida long ago. Matter of fact, had Connie and I camped out on our land during yellow fly season when we first bought it , I'm not really sure we would be living here right now.
