    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
    There are a lot of unwanted, unloved bikes out there - go on give a bike a good home

    I have a HUGE head, so I used to buy helmets in black or dark grey figuring that dark colors were slimming on the head like they are on the body.

    Now that I've had a few close calls, I'm all about the visibility. Screw the big head worries! My current helmet is white (and it happens to match my bike, too) because I figure it's not only more visible in low light, but it may be cooler in the sun too.
    OMG, I thought my husband and I were the ONLY XL headed people in the world. I wore his helmet until I got mine, the women's wouldn't even fit me!! Maybe that is why my daughter had such a difficult time coming into the world and need a vacumn assist to help her. Yes we have BIG noggins and our helmets are boring silver....that is all we could find in.....MEGA head size

    My helmet is sort of silvery white and I love it! I don't think it's boring at all! In fact it's my favorite color!
