I was wondering if it was just me, or the color.
My bright yellow windbreaker seems to attract the bees, it's not neon just yellow like a flower would be. Good for on road visibility, but not good for off road, the bees do seem to like it. A good friend went mountain biking with another friend who had something in her hair that had a floral smell. She did not get stung but the bees followed her around so much they had to quit and go home.
