I put my head down and just glance up once and a while trying to keep them out of my mouth and nose, but a few always manage to get in both places. Being humid my arms get covered in them and they stick there, really nasty stuff. I am hoping they are gone this morning but I probably won't be that lucky lol.
Your post reminded me my commutes have been pretty gnat-free this year. There have been other years where I have been your shoes (in your
saddle?) I hate getting to work and finding gnats trapped on my arms and legs.
Even so...I'd still rather bike than drive to work!
