It’s bad enough that POC helmets make me look like I’m wearing a carved watermelon on my head…
…they also create the most whacked-out helmet head you could ever hope for. I was going to suggest a competition, but on review of the photo below, there’s no way anybody could come close. I win.
The Vicious Cycle 
Agreed!
Agreed. Why did you buy it in the first place? No mirror in the shop? No wife with you? *ggg*
I don’t know. I’m hoping to fall on my head so I can have a good excuse to buy a new one.
Yep, you win. Headsweats or cycling caps fix that… and keep the sweat out of your eyes. I highly recommend them.
I had some nasty stinging in the eyes the other day and thought of slapping something on the noggin for the summer. Now I have two reasons…thanks.
Works like a charm Gerry. I don’t leave home without one or the other any more. Also keeps the bees out of my hair and I REALLY dig that.
I think it looks very fetching.
Good Heavens, man – WTF is happening under that watermelon? Bandana time, or cycling cap, stat!
Cycling fashion is a work in progress. Bandana coming soon.
is that a receding hairline mon ami? 🙂
Optical illusion, I hope.
Should see my white haired punk Mohican after a ride, might be a candidate?
Send it over. I’ll be happy to post!
Never mind the hair, what about the face?
Noticed, you are reading The Rider, best cycling book every, have you cycled the route?
I’ve read it 4 or 5 times over the years. It’s a wonderful read. Yes, have ridden the route in full and bits and pieces many times. We are going to do it again later this month with a journalist from Cyclist Magazine, which will hopefully get a few people interested in riding this awesome area.
