*joke* should you replace your new hat after it has flown of the roof of your car at 50mph 🤔

I'm a chaotic human and left my several months old 4star on top of my car after riding from the field. To be far this is a good advert for C&O is stayed on my car for 2 miles around the lanes and it wasn't until I hit the national speed limit road and accelerated that it flew off onto the road. looks pretty good, I feel safe in the knowledge that if my head hits tarmac at speed it stays intact as I fork out for a new one

Nah - that'll be fine. After all you didn't fall off

 

[nagblagger]

Maybe you could send it back for them to dissect and document any damage. Research, could be interesting seeing the internal damage.

 

[teapot]

Oooffff! I'd def be sending back to CO to see if they're interested!

I once left my wallet on the bumper of my Defender in Brecon and it was found in Merthyr, 23 miles away. I think it’s testament to our driving that they stayed out so long, Cloball. It might have something to do with the very square bumper though.

Testament to the person who found it and handed it in too!

I have to admit I opened the thread because I totally misread the title, which I thought said something about that your hat "had flown off the roof on your cat at 50 mph".

I expected a story about your cat running out of a window wearing one of your hats, onto a roof... And I was both confused by how fast your cat was, but also over how you so precisely knew the exact speed.

 

[Cloball]

@FinnishLapphund I'm always misreading titles, maybe should attach a tracker to the cat and see how fast he goes.

 

[Jambarissa]

I think lucky it didn't go through the window of the car behind you

I wonder how it stayed on so long though. I wouldn't make it out of our very bumpy farm track.

 

[Cloball]

I hadnt even thought about that, luckily there wasn't anything on the road. Not a farm track but a very potholed twisty single track lane for 2 miles

 

[Bernster]

Oops!

 

[ycbm]

It's just a scratch.

 

[Love]

Ah, you'll be reet! There is that superstition after all in that you should always put the first scratch on a new helmet before wearing it
