What helmet are you wearing? Looks like no visor cover? I have an Alpha Eagle, but keep whacking my head on the door frame of my ol' 206. Yours looks to be a lower profile.
Ya'll be safe up there!

Safety checks complete, pedals, HuH where's me pedal extensions?
G'day vaqueroaero..... it's a North Wall made in Italia, lightest & toughest on the market apparently. Has a dual visor system which flips back inside the helmet between the inner & outer shell. Great system, keeps the visor dust & scratch free Very comfy with an Ozz made ANR system, the Bose never seemed to work right, always breaking the ear seals Home made Sun Peak...works awesome early & late arvos with a harsh Sun

Hey VF, when it comes to what one eats I've always believed it's a matter of balance.
I like my animal products but I also like to know they have been raised well and treated with respect. This isn't something that works well for the masses at scale unfortunately with bulk farming.
What has always amused me is that you will never see non-veges (meatatarians?) convincing others to eat more meat. The veggie/vegan movement has almost become religious (much like them cyclists ) and just won't be happy until all us heathens are converted, beware the carrot-inquisition!

Good morning VF. A request. I really enjoy your great photographs on this forum but I am getting a little tired of being lectured on veganism. Those photos make me squirm! I wonder if you would like to start a new thread about your dietary life so the we can just enjoy the mountains and the people?
PS - not entirely sure that this Rotorheads section is suitable for that. Jet Blast????????
