Helmet Hair

if you drink enough beer then you won't care about your hair.... or work... just show up at work and pound a few beers in the parking lot... problem solved.
 
Do the female riders not have a problem with this? :confused:

When I used to ride to my job as a car salesperson, I would toss it in a ponytail and just fluff it with some water when I got there, or keep it in the ponytail. Now, I don't ride to work cause I only work a mile from home, but it's short enough where it isn't really noticeable (just above the shoulders).
 
Why is she a perv? Dang girl is trying to remember the good old days when her better half could have been like Pete. Now, did ya get her address? When you get to be my age you're always looking for that sweet young thing and she's younger than I am... You're sure she was good looking right Pete? I mean you weren't seeing things now were ya Sarge......?

Funny you should say that Charlie. I'm 43 and while I enjoy looking at the menu, I keep coming back to the 38 to 45 section. You're right, it's all depends on where you are in life.

In fact a had a date last night with an amazing 40 year old woman. WOW! The best part was she asked me out! After being called all kind of names for years it was quit the ego boost.

In to keep on thread she has beautiful long natural blond hair. I think I'm smitten!

I always keep a hat inside my backpack. So needless to say, I'm always wearing a hat, icluding work and while playing poker. However, it appears that I will be needing a hair cut very soon, I will request a shorter cut, but I will still wear the hat.
 
I go with short hair, seems to be OK. While trying to sound as hetero-sexual as I can, I did purchase a type of styling gel that automatically rebounds to the original style once the hair gets wet. So, a quick trip to bathroom, wet the hair a little , and it looks as good as it did before I put on the helmet. Worth every penny of the $20 I paid for it, seeing as how I work in sales and looking professional is pretty much mandatory.

why wouldn't you ride every day if you only live a mile from work???:confused:

if it's nice, I walk. I am out of work at 3PM every day, so I have plenty of time to ride. But, allowing time for the bike to warm up in the morning and gear up and everything, it takes me longer to get ready than it does to get there.


Not to mention I work at a high school and something scares me about teenagers and motorcycles.

Me too, I love my baseball caps and don't leave home without one. I generally keep the bill tucked in my waste band. Done right it can hold things while I ride kinda like a marsupium for the baby marsupial......

I would prefer if the bike was still around and still on it's side stand when she got out of work, i am not too worried about theft as much as the kids moving the thing or knocking it over "because it is cool". Darn kids:Flip: Most are good, just not all of them are.

Bill in the waist band? gee Charlie, I guess the GI just doesn't get out of the blood does it??? ;)
 
I stopped worrying about hair (and where my comb was) about 30 years ago...:D
Muscle-memory is still there though....When I take my helmet off, I still tidy up phantom phuzz. (Might be some nice looking chicks around, right?...:p )

Ol' never say die Mike :rockon:
 
Riding season = extremely short hair. No issues once I get to work. If it's just before another cut then a quick stop at the bathroom with water and a brush fixes it.

I too walk in in full gear and undress at my cube. Overpants are the best! I keep a pair of work shoes at work under my desk to change into.
 
I got for the 'looks like i just woke up' look... some of the girls at work said it was 'hot'... can't go wrong there :p
And yeah, the overpants are a shocker to some at first.

Mate thats excellent, I nominate you for the Official FZ6 forum "Zapper" hair piece. It will arrive by Fed ex express in the next couple of hours.

I believe it’s the time when the egg leaves the fallopian tube and embeds into the lining of the uterus? So for a lady were talking about every 22-25 days. For a fella its about now until your told to go home (to possibly do some routine maintenance or re-bore on said tubes). Then your biking season becomes a snatched weekend with distant buddies who vaguely remember you, and let you ride at the back of the pack ad pick up the lunch tab.

:Flip: :D Smart Arse!

For you, it's the moment you wake up til the moment you go to sleep. For me it's maybe May through Sept.

This year just plain SUCKS up here! April isn't showing us any relief and we still have snow on the ground.

You're fortunate... all of you in those climates! I've gotta find a good job in a warmer place!
