worlez Posted June 28, 2006 Report Share Posted June 28, 2006 So after about 3 years break from riding moto and cyclo trials, I'm starting to get back into riding again. Since I last rode though, my hair has grown about 10 inches I don't ride with a helmet at the moment, purely because I cant fit one on my hair! Tried to tie it back, but its not quite long enough at the front, so I'm riding with hair in my face constantly.Anyone else in the same boat?Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A!! Posted June 28, 2006 Report Share Posted June 28, 2006 My is fairly long but i just tend to tuck the front into the side of my helmet so it doesnt block my vision. Or you could just put some smaller pads in the helmet, that way there is more room Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dave85 Posted June 28, 2006 Report Share Posted June 28, 2006 Seeing as it'll be under a lid, I used to nick my sister's curved hair clips to deal with the front bit. Now permanently cured by our good friend #2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny Kearns Posted June 28, 2006 Report Share Posted June 28, 2006 Ask echo-1080-pure who is a member on this forum.When we are out riding he is murder, everytime he does something his hat falls off because he where's a beenie. So a helmet resolved it, workes a treat. Agreed skinhead all the way. Dan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

willwithashton Posted June 28, 2006 Report Share Posted June 28, 2006 I have longish hair but i find it easyest to Steal my girlfriends bandanna hair band things. They work really well too keep your hair out of your face. P.S dont steal a white one brcause it goes black when you repair your bike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oddball Posted June 29, 2006 Report Share Posted June 29, 2006 I had long hair for ages, and just got fed up with it so I got my girlfriend to shave me a Mohawk so my hair isn’t in my face at all, a flexi-fit cap might do mate, if you don’t want to cut it off?

sunn_bmixx Posted June 29, 2006 Report Share Posted June 29, 2006 only advise i would say is get it cut, I use to ride with long hair and when you get it cut it feels the best because you dont have it slapping you in the eyes all the time!Ianthe bandana idea sounds ok though, may look a bit of a cock though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebelistic Posted June 29, 2006 Report Share Posted June 29, 2006 I have long hair and It's no problem I just tie it back I guess short hair keeps your head cooler though, but then this isn't the hottest climate (UK) . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A long time but worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
