No lid sunny days

Thats it.....my lid smells like old socks, I am there fore helmetless at the moment.....Not a great situation, but the wind in my hair and the sun beating on my face is magical!
Roll on panda eyes from my sunglasses....
Anyone else dropped the lid for summer?

if you want to? if not don't. there is no should here.
I've heard (from my sister-in-law) that you can very successfully pull out the pads and put them through the washing machine to sort out this issue.
However, being a bloke, I've no first hand experience of doing so...

For very long (we're talking more than half an hour) climbs, I might take it off and hang it off the handlebars if it's a hot day.
Are you planning on falling off?

I always wear a lid on road and off - same as someone above - may take the lid off on very long climbs if its a very hot day.
Its very liberating

Funnily enough I don't use it on the weekends, only when commuting (RP social excepted) .
It was a 1.5 inch cut slap bang in the middle of my forehead... and the amount of blood that poured out of me was scary
Luckily my mum was at home to get me up to the hospital.
I used to go half and half with wearing a helmet, but I'd definately wear one now knowing that even a small head wound can produce such spectaculal results!
oh yeah, and wearing the helmet at the time prevented people from noticing that with a huge bump on my forehead I looked just like a Klingon
