Great day out today ( see under 'driving' - just one problem?

How do you keep your head sheltered from the lovely sunshine we've had today?

I've ended up with a red face, a Very Red forehead and a red patch on the top where my hair used to be!! And I've now got a headache, too.

Before you suggest the obvious "get a hat" reply - remember they blow off!

What do you open - top veterans use?

Factor 30! I always keep some in the car

beanie hat or cap attach a bit of fishing line to the cap and tie it to the harness

PS a tomato rubbed on to the sunburn reduces the burning (you have to cut it in half)

every time i go out i look like ive been in spain for a week, factor 30 helps a bit.

I'm follically challenged, so I've got a yachting hat (baseball cap made by Musto, or similar) that has a little strap and a clip at the back - I put on the hat & clip it to my coat collar. Saying that - I usually wear ear protectors when on a run of any distance (to keep wind roar down) so that keeps the hat in place.

I use a baseball cap but with the cunning lanyard looped through the back and hung roung my neck, it does sometimes lift off but is retained and recoverered.
On longer runs I use a crash helmet.

JPSC club baseball cap. Lanyard (from a security pass) looped around the harness strap and attached to the back of cap. I also keep sun cream in the car.

How about one of these helmets? All you need then is the wet celery and the egg whisk!

Staple a beanie hat to your ears - painful but effective

Bobby Charlton style comb over held in place with Araldite, it's the mans way

a roof?

A buff works for me. http://www.buff.eu and look at the original buffs. Available from most good outdoor shops and some cycle shops.

You could try a "cap retainer"

Not used the company above it was the first hit in Google.

I know lots of people use them to good effect
