    First time I've ridden the bike in about 2 weeks. Get on the highway, noticed a spider crawling around the gauge face of the speedo, inside the gauge. Hangs out in there the entire 40 minutes to work.

    Get off work, of course the damned spider spun webbing, and of course did enough to stop up the speedometer, which now doesn't move past 35- additional resistance from pushing into spiderweb.

    Thanks spider, I'll really enjoy having to take the gauge apart to get you and your web out of there. Dumbass.

    Ha! Never heard that one before, I used to have an old Packard Bell console stereo that had stink bugs crawling around behind the tuning dial glass
