How many helmets do you own?

[Dianyla]

As much as I wanted to get a blue helmet to match my blue bike and mostly blue cycling wardrobe, in the end I opted to get a silver for this very reason. Just in case any additional bikes I might own aren't blue. Hard to imagine such a scenario, though.

ETA: And it ain't just a girly thing, either. My brother bought a helmet to match his bike and his sunglasses, and one of his specific criteria was that his sunglasses had to be able to flip up into them for easy storage. OK, maybe we're just fussy in my family!

I have three
A silver Limar 911 - netural color goes with anything
A silver/grey Bell Influx (Beieve it's called the Alcheara outside of the Us - another netural color
A Purple(lavender)/White Giro Monza - Cause I like purple!
Had a giro havoc - Dropped on concrete - in the trash!
Like SK, You need to have more than one of these! That way, even if you have a "minor" crash, you won't be tempted to wear it rather than throw it away. You don't only have one pair of earrings or shoes, do you?
I also like SK's idead of bag with your stuff. I do most of riding out of my front door, but when I have to take a car to the ride, I do put the bike stuuf (vs the bike) in a duffel

I am still on my first one, that I bought this summer.
I am very picky about my clothing, but for some reason I don't care as much about my helmet matching anything. I do like it to be white or a light or bright color however, since I tend to wear too much black while biking anyway, and I worry about being seen well enough.

Do as I say and not as I do. I have 5. I like helmets.

i have the giro one thats white and gold. i got it so i didn't have to have different ones to match my outfits.

BF was the one that said to get that color so it went with everything. his is silver for that very reason. so it isn't just a girl thing or something that only runs in Dianyla's family.

Usually 3, I need a new one. The oldest one's usualy in the car since the day I arrived at a Century with everything .... but a helmet (luckily the Primavera starts near home).

After tiring of nagging a co-worker to get a brain bucket I gave her my oldest lid, a 3 year old Giro Eclipse. Whata waste of a good planter.

Does she wear it? Noooooooooo. But she's a manager so whadya expect?

Now I have two and I'm not givin' em away, each has my ALC sticker on it. But I need a new one.

I was going to wait till Veloswap but will pounce on the next sale/nice design, I promise. They are kept out of sunlight unless on my head

I don't try to match my outfits, heck I barely match my socks. I don't like white, black or grey helmets, anything else is fine.

So far I only have 1, the first Giro I bought in July when I began cycling. It is pink and white. From other posts, I can see I *need* more.
