So far in the last week I had a bee sting me in the leg while riding on the freeway and today a fat bumble bee or something hit my face shield and splattered so much I had a hard time seeing! Also had a mystery bug hit me in the eye when I had my visor up a while back... That really sucked.

You?
 
A bird hit me in the chest at around 55 mph on Mines. It felt pretty solid.

Damn! That bee hit me on mines today... I had a lot of birds come close out there too.

Also not talking vehicles cuz I was hit by a car too but more like random objects
 
Bee in the neck going into turn 1 at T-Hill..
Had to complete the lap with that p.o.s stuck in my neck..
Sucked
 
I've had a yellow jacket get me 7 times before release on a ride and a bee get me mid race at Button Willow on the last race weekend of the season.

But the worse, was a rock face that broke 3 vertebrae in my back and one in my neck. That was a bad year
 
Awww you got hit by a bug. Lol. I've been stung tons of times. Worst thing I hit was a mutha fooking grand daddy turkey vulture right in the top of the helmet at 100+ mph!!! Felt like someone hit me with a sledge hammer. Saw stars dancing, thought I was gonna pass out. Killed the bird instantly. Had a sore neck for a week.

If the mustang doesn't count, I guess it was the bee that stung me in the neck on a ride back from Tuolumne Meadows, maybe Summer 2010.
 
Vulture in the chest at 70. Almost took me off the bike. Was like catching a bag of concrete. Stunk to high hell too.
 
fu**ing deer
 
Generally, pretty much anything that squashes you, instead of you squashing it.

Personally, a Chevy Suburban.
