Default How many hats have you lost so far?

Lost my first hat taking an onramp a little too spiritedly. RIP

Never lost a hat, even at 120 MPH. <-- In mexico, of course

You're more likely to lose one when you are drafting behind a truck or something and the airflow gets all irregular.

I keep my hat extra tight cause I'm paranoid. Unfortunately it gives me a line on my forehead. I was thinking of maybe attaching a small lanyard to the hat and tying it to something inside so if it blew off, it wouldn't fly out! Weird idea, huh?

I've only lost one. I went to do a head-check before changing lanes and a gust snagged the brim of my cap.

Only lost one. . . but my height is where the brim will grab the angle of incidence from the windshield.

For me, I'm always wearing a cap and my top is always down (I don't fish tank it either; I have both windows and the aero screen down - check my out my sig ) and I've never lost a hat. I had a friend once tell me that I had to wear a hat to where I can tuck in my ears I was like, "pfft nawwww I'll wear a hat that fits thanks..." lol

I sit pretty upright so I feel a lot of turbulence up there too
