I wasn't driving a Morgan last week on holiday in Yorkshire - sort of wish I had been as the roads were brilliant. Anyway driving along an A road @ around 45mph I had a huge stone that was launched by an HGVs tyre come straight at my car windscreen - it was big in that I saw it coming - the size of a small bird. It hit with a huge bang low on the screen and made a 5 inch area of damage in the glass - enough for glass shards to sit on the dash of the Mini. Any faster and I think it would have entered the cabin.

Very scary - it occurred to me that had I been in my ( now departed 3 wheeler) without a helmet it could very well have hit me and caused a serious injury. I don't know if you guys use a helmet - I didn't very often - but after that I think I would all the time.
