As you know from our posts on RBR forum, but what others here may not know, is that I too am a cyclist.
I don't have the patience to segment or braid, and quite frankly, I like the way my tail blows in the slipstream behind me. The consequence is that when my tail gets about a foot long, I have to trim it back to about ten inches. Any longer and the tangles are ferocious. Of course, my hair is much finer than yours, so I'm not surprised you can get away with longer.
Cycling also dictates where I tail. It's somewhere between low-tail and high-tail. Too low and (this time of year) it gets in the way of the collar of my cycling jacket--especially troublesome since like you, I ride roadies. Tail too high, and I have to wear my helmet over my eyes.
Anyway, cycling is what keeps me both sane and healthy, so it's a sacrifice I gladly make.
It's supposed to get warmer during the week. By next weekend, maybe I can park the studded-tire commuter and on to the Litespeed.
