I
think I like the idea of a straw brim even better! Yep, Mary Anna could have
made some money on that idea, especially since she was advertising it while she
rode.

That makes me chuckle. Actually, Mary Anna Woods, a NATRC rider,
who competes in the Open class on 37 year old Elmer Bandit , created
her own version of this head protection: she bought an oversized straw
hat with a wide brim, cut the middle out, slid it over her helmet and used
duct tape to secure it. It has protected her for years. Perhaps
she should have patented the idea:-)
