I hope your cold and your back get better soon.

I had a sneezing fit Saturday while I was riding with my full face helmet on(as if I own anything else). I flipped up my shield as I closed my eyes and lowered my head just at the point of discharge. I did this about seven times while maintaining a steady 60mph and staying in my lane. I kinda wondered if anybody passing by wondered what the hell I was doing.

Man.... I hate it when that happens. I wondered the same..... A kid looking out the car window..." Look mommy, that Man is having a seizure on his Motorcycle" ! I've done that with my welding mask as well , sometimes don't get shield up fast enough for discharge...Yecchhh !

Ripping down the road in spring - with the pollen from trees and plants wafting in the breeze - is like having that stuff crammed up the nostrils. It used to really make feel like shit. Only since last year I have been wearing a helmet with a shield, an HJC CL33. Man, I do not miss the pollen and horny bees, wasps, an other winged bugs slamming into my face! Calm, peaceful, existential. It is good.
