It would be foolish to ride here without some sort of eye protection. It is a choice that could be a really dumb one if you choose to ride without glasses. The sheer force that the bee hit my neck with nearly took me off the bike, and that was before it stung me. Imagine if that would have been my eye and I would have been riding in traffic next to a truck?
