I can only imagine what my face would have looked like all bugged up had I not had the visor to catch the bugs. The same went for all the bugs I felt impacting my mesh jacket. Literally smacking my arms and my legs. Without the proper gear, I would have had bug juice and stingers everywhere. So, I've decided to continue wearing ATGATT. I choose not to be the "bug lady."

My Vega 3/4 helmet has a flip up face shield. I only wear it when it gets unbearably hot during the summer and prefer my modular full face helmet.
