Helmet Color?

When I was waiting for my bike to be delievered, I bought a wonderful shiny blue Giro to match my bike, but never used it. I never even took it out of the box, because I decided my main concerns were visibility and lots and lots of holes, for airflow, and my pretty blue didn't have enough holes to suit me, and I wasn't so sure about the visibility.

I ended up with a flat white Giro that is actually made for mountain biking (or so I was told) because in my price range, it had the most holes.

I've since considered getting a bright yellow like Lisa SH and may yet -- but it will have to have LOTS of air flow. My head gets way hot in the Texas heat; I can hardly bear to wear a cap or hat of any kind. When I take it off, my head is as drenched as if somebody had dumped a bucket of steaming hot water over me.

My Specialized Allez Elite is a nice sexy superdark grey, and I think dark helmets look badass... so I got a black helmet with pink stripes on the sides. Badass with a girly flair

Mine is pink and white with dark pink flowers. Very girly, but my bike is black so I had to have a bit of color somewhere! It also makes me very easy to spot in a crowd...

Mine is a purply/lilac shade. After trying on several helmets, it was the only one that fitted properly and comfortably. I'm a blue and purple girl so I was happy with the colour.

Went to buy a decent pair of cycling shorts yesterday (same shop I'm getting my new bike from). They only had one pair of extra small - which were bright scarlet red I had to say no to them as I detest wearing red. They're hoping to get a new delivery by the weekend. Black or navy blue is fine with me

I do wear a high-viz vest when I'm on the road though. See and be seen

White, silver or yellow to reflect the sun.
