Yikes! No fun.

I'm lucky, I’m one of those that has only minor swelling and never had much pain associated with my many bee stings over the years, other than that initial stick of the stinger.

I’m sure that is why I did not stop pedaling. It’s not that I’m so tough; rather, it is really that my body has very little reaction to the sting.
