    Getting back on the bike..

    double check your suit and veil before you start,go gently and use 2 cover cloths you confidence will return,with the cover cloths if you feel panicky you just pull cloth over and walk away,looking at 1 frame top of bees much better than 10 /11 frames,my thoughts are that after so many stings...
