I remember locally many years ago, a person who was riding a motorcycle and choked to death on a humming bird that got into his open mouth. Strange things happen.

That seems more plausible

One reason to wear a full-face helmet!

I’ve been stung by bees and wasps due to motorcycling. Especially in warmer weather when you’re not wearing as much gear, and the insects are more active. They end up in any opening in your clothing, like a sleeve or an unzipped jacket.

I’ve never been stung while on a bicycle, but I’ve had plenty of wasps and bees bounce off my face while cruising along.

Zipping along at 60 mph and getting hit square on the nose by a passing June bug almost knocked me for a loop.
