As far as the NO HELMET argument. all I can speak from is experience. Last year I got tangled up somehow and went into a slow speed fall, would of been alright if I'd not of sort of tripped and spun around and fell on my back with a whip sort of motion. I hit the back of my helmet on the ground hard enough to crack it. I would of been at least hurting badly if not injured or unconscious without a helmet. So for me, laws or not, scientific findings or now, I wear a helmet.

Now back to our regular scheduled program: Like a few other posters I agree you have little choice, cut it off or carry product and gear to fix your coif after your ride. It just goes with the territory.
