You've got to watch your back in the SSDB, this is where the clever guys get bored with bike talk and make poo jokes.
I like my women a little big. Natural. Now, they shave this and wax that. It's not right. I love natural women. Big women. This trend in women has to go. Bulomia, anorexia. That's just wrong. You know what will cure that? My special sticky buns. One lick of my sticky buns and your appetite will come right back. ~ RIP Mr. Borgnine  01/24/1917 - 07/08/2012  :'(

Ofreen ,  you could get a jockey hat with a chin strap so you wouldn't have to worry about it blowing off.

Thanks. The chin strap idea intrigues me, although I wonder if there might a strangulation hazard if things go tango uniform. I think I might try some adhesive-backed Velcro, one side stuck to the inside of the cap, the other to my bald spot.  I'll try it a little later in the season and report back.

velcro is a good idea, after all it holds on most every cafe seat ever made so why not a helmet?

I should have known I'd get some smart responses....  :o But, I find good deals on helmets and get a white one to match the white bike, silver to match silver bike, etc. The rest of my accessories consist of jeans, stout jacket and leather gloves, none that necessarily match anything..... I guess no one else is as anal as I am, or want to admit it.....  ::)

I'm with Krusty on the one head one helmet.

Matching this matching that...what you talkin' 'bout Willis? Accessories? Get on your bike and ride...it's not a fashion statement. It's a liberation.

I wear a fireman helmet. I'm not a fireman so I feel like I am being ironic while riding however I am not real sure what irony really is.
