Arai helmets and nose hair

**Finn** · 7th June 2006, 08:49

Okay, as I'm getting a little older, hair is growing everywhere but my head. Nobody told me about this. Regardless, I have discovered that my nostril hair is growing at an alarming rate causing a high level of discomfort while riding. The problem is with the vents in my Aria blowing air directly up my nose, tickling my nose hair. It's very distracting.

I now find myself having to trim my nose hair. Am I alone here?

no nasal hair problems for this geeza; that being said you are about 20 years older.

Yes, Finn; you are alone with your nose hair. A social pariah in fact.

Meh. You've done it now, openly exposed yourself as a Nana rider. If you were riding at the pace your nostril hairs would long since have been blown completely backwards by the air force and would now be growing backwards down your throat and tickling your tonsils.

Us tall fullas have to trim regularly, especially if trying to woo ladies of shorter stature......

Other suggestions?

Snort some delapitory cream before you ride. (You should see the chemical list on that shit, what a buzz - and it's legal!)
Buy another pair of those $50 earplugs and stick them up your nose (you won't smell the hot oil burning your boots as it leaks out of the Italian machine though)

That would make you 15 and explain your pimples.

60 Watt soldering iron works best...I have problems with lush eyebrow growth,when I wear goggles it pushes the hairs down cutting my vision.

Meh. Wuss. Oxy acetylene torch is the biz. One quick pass, pssffft , sorted.

box of matches? :P

You only need to trim your nosehairs once they start getting trapped when you shut your visor.

Although I'm Jewish, I don't think a box of matches would fit up my nose.

Hmm. D'y' know, I'm now starting to wonder about Mr Scumdog's famous freak mustachios. Perhaps he has opted for *training* instead of *trimming* ?

On the topic of body hair, did you know that the hairs on your arse are connected to your eye lashes? It must be true cause if you pull out an arse hair you blink.
