Hell Hog , thats what my hair looked like from 13 to 26 then i chopped it all off when i came to a state with a helmet law and also bought a convertible sports car and it always got in my way at the gym and pool , well the long hair is gone and now whats left is going fast :grrr: , the sports car is gone but your not taking my bike babe , hell no.
We moved down to North Carolina in the middle of the Bible belt when i was 15 and you would think no one had ever seen a "head" before . ( = Hippie to the younger members ) No problems but got a lot of looks .
I hear all your saying bro. I decided to keep my hair, although it is getting a lil thinner as I get older. Oh well, if need be I'll shave it, but till then, I'll keep it

I watched long hair come & go, come & go. I just kept it the same since 13 yrs old. Course the new long goat is a change, things damn as near long as my hair LOL.
I am at the point I am comfortable with me, those that take the time to know me, know I am not all as I look. Those that don't, f'em. It used to be a problem with the law etc. But now once people get to talk with me and know a bit about me, they are surprised usually. I love riding the hog to a lil town diner, walk in, and the place goes silent. I can literally feel the eyes upon me. Then once I start talking, ordering etc. Their jaws drop because I don't talk like a Neanderthal. Yes I know a few big words and can speak fairly intelligently, when I choose to. Ive just been "me" my whole life. Its all I know to be. Of course, the Neanderthal can surface when its warranted

.
Still got the bike, and like you will never give it up. No helmet, and the 68 GTO is long gone. Although I still have 2 hoods, 5 doors, 2 noses with hidden headlamps etc etc etc. I hope to some day have another. I really loved that car. Having it at 17 yrs old was not a good time to have it. I totaled it 2x, and gave up on it after the second time. I don't go to a gym, I smoke alot, smoke a lil of the 420 once in a while, rarely drink. Quite the opposite of what folks think when they see me.
Of course if I ever get to NE. I would have a night or two of drinking for such an occasion

Just take me to a nasty ti--y bar and I am all set
