Hahahahaha... I apologize if anyone here has actually taken a bird to the chest because I can't imagine it's very pleasant, but its a pretty humorous mental image.

I've definately got windshield on my 'things to add' list... I wasn't a fan when I first started riding because I rarely ventured out of town and over 40 miles an hour, but now that I'm taking frequent and much longer rides, I think it's pretty much a necessity! Anybody have any recommendations on style/brand/size etc? I'm going to check the other boards of course, but I figured why not ask on this one too

I think I'm turning into a junkie for this site... everyone I've talked to is super friendly and helpful... really glad I joined!!
