[TR] Is this a first?

[Bob Labuz]

Andrew,

This has never happened to me while driving a Triumph car but it did 
happen to me while driving a Triumph motorcycle. Bumble bee went right 
up my right sleeve on my leather jacket. I was only going about 50 or so 
with my wife on the back. She thought I was loosing my mind slamming on 
the brakes.
Not allergic but it did hurt! I took the jacket off and the bee went on 
his way.
