Many years ago (early 70's) my mate Jeff and I rode through a swarm of locusts as we approached the gold coast from the west.
Got totally plastered in bugs!
When we reached Surfers, we headed for the first car wash we could find. One of those auto ones with the brushes.
We dropped our visors, and walked the bikes through! Damn, but those brushes slapped us around?
... and the hot water down the back of the neck caused a few expletives as well!
At least the bikes, helmets, and our leathers were clean again, tho!
