| Helmet story Hi group, I have to share my helmet story and offer it up to be skewered. I wiped out on May 29th, going about 25 mph, slight downhill. Landed on my right side, cheekbone and helmet. Lotsa road rash on knees and arm. Divot outta my cheek. Road rash through the plastic cover on the helmet. Broke same helmet into 3 pcs. Started riding again Wednesday, 2 1/2 weeks after impact. Fancy new Giro helmet. Not getting any urges to duplicate the impact without the helmet, just to see if there's a measurable difference. Keep it tire side down, TomB |
