Full Face vs 3/4 or no helmet at all
« on: October 15, 2007, 11:18:16 AM »

I discovered some thing this week with my first real road trip wearing my 3/4 helmet (always wore full face or face shield.  Maybe you guys that wear these or no helmet at all.  Escpecially Snake - bet he really has trouble with it.

 The wind tickles the he!! out of my nose hairs during the ride and last night I thought I was never going to get the tangles combed out.

 :o :o :o

I got all teary eyed every time I tried.

How do you guys handle that. 

I'm just not ready to attempt a nose waxing yet.

I found that if you braid the nose hairs, then hey just bang the crap out of your face instead of tickling. That works for me.  :)

Hey hangman, what you need to do is to carefully cut a couple of 3-4 inch slices from your bandana/skullcap, (it's GOT to match for this to look cool), and roll the ends to the approximate diameter of your nostrils. Then insert the rolled end into your nostrils leaving 2-3 inches hanging down for that stylish "blowin' in the wind" look as you are ridin' down the highway.

I have been far from OK, for a long time, the funny farm people have come close to catching me, but something icky keeps messing up their wind shield.

I'm gonna try this one the very next time I get together with you guys.
Maybe I can get Snake to bring his camera.
