    The hair on top just ain't a problem anymore if you know what I mean. But while my sister was in last weekend, she cut some off the back and now the cold air is hitting the back of my neck. It was 24 degrees yesterday morning 21 degrees riding to work this morning. Tell you what. it'll be well into spring and maybe even summer before any shears get close again.

    Brrr . . . I don't know how you can ride in 21 degree weather. Wind chill must be around 10. Weather like that a guy needs every hair he can find! I won't go out riding anymore until it's at least in the mid 50's. But then, I'm not as hard core as I used to be.

    Our Polar Bear ride last Saturday started out in the low 20's and the wind was blowing out of the east from the Columbia Gorge. CB, would have froze in his tracks. :roflmao:


    As for the Hair Cowboy you could have put it in a pony tail. Know a guy here that rides and his is about like yours was and he keeps it in a pony tail. Now, you may as well go down and get a perm and put some curl into it. :D:D :roflmao: Just kidding of course :D

    So long as the road is dry and the temp is going to gradually get up to 30 or better, I have to get out and ride just to maintain what little bit of sanity I have left. Just something about listeneing to the pipes and "pushing" the lean angle.:D:D

    Lotsa guys cut it off and donate
    to help make wigs for cancer patients who have
    lost hair to kemo or for other reasons.

    Locks for love or something like that.

    Buddy had one down to his waist
    and cut it completely off and donated..

    If I had enough hair to even grow a pony tail I would never cut it off, man I got more hair on my upper lip than on the top of my head. :roflmao:

    Locks of Love will get mine when I get enough to spare...
    I`ve donated 10" to them a few years back, that is the minimum they will use, you can donate any length but shorter than 10" will be sold, rather than used by them...
    I made up my mind to donate again back in July...
    It is a worthy cause, but I wonder sometimes IF it`s worth the hassle of long hair again???
    Yeah, it is...
