My squid came out cold once, I sent it back. Even though they brought back a fresh order, I still didn't leave a tip. I don't tip for cold squid.

If I didn't have a shield I would wear a full face or 3/4 with one... Since I do I wear a half with a flip down sun visor sometimes... Sometimes I go sans helm because I don't have to wear one in ND

Back in the 60s and 70s before FF helmets became popular, most riders wore 3/4 helmets with either a bubble or comp (flat) shield. "Comp" is short for Competition because the pro flat track and road racers wore 3/4 helmets with comp shields w/tear-offs. Were they pussies? I don't think so. The real pussies are the fashionistas.

Hell no wearing a face shield dose not make you
a sissy, or a wimp, or a panty waist, however it will
make you comfortable. I keep two with me at all
times. One clear, and one dark, one for the day and
one for the night. One on my 3/4 five snap helmet,
one in a sack made out of a hand towel, and tossed
into my saddle bag.
