Re: Ok I have heard-but I need air

You can add a Cookies Cool Cap (I think), which is some sort of ice pack
that goes into your helmet to cool your head.  If you can learn to live with
a brim, though, it's a great idea.  Hubby recently fell off and landed right
on his face somehow and fortunately the brim of his Troxel took the brunt of
the damage.  He had a bloody nose, but it would have been much worse without
a good brim.

For all of you who thumb your noses at tall horses, at least you have time
while you are falling to PLAN your landing.  He fell off an Icelandic horse,
and it's just too quick of a trip to the dirt to get any extra points for a
swan dive.  ;-)
