Don't you folks have bugs where you ride, like we do here in the NE of the US of A? Over the weekend I was riding around the Adirondacks and I had to stop every 15 or 20 minutes at one point to clear the bug splatter off my face shield. It took 15 minutes at the end of the day to scrub most of the bugs off the front of my bike. Even if the pain of the bugs hitting you doesn't bother you, some of the splatter is pretty seriously big and gross. Once in a while you get dinged by something like a big flying beetle that is like a small flying stone. I guess I'd rather not ride with stuff like that flying up my nose and down my throat. And, what do you do in hail storms?
