    My helmet is gray with an iridescent design on it. I got it because it was pretty and not too expensive. It does not match my bike but it does not clash with my bike.

    My bike is turquoise so I guess you could say it "goes" with my bike.

    Bright screaming neon lime-yellow, with reflective tape all over it, reflective straps, and a 3-way blinkie (mutant guppy) on top.

    My sweetie bought it for me. She wants me to be visible.

    My helmet is a white Trek Vapor because a) it was inexpensive, b) it was light weight and it fit well, and c) I didn't like the other color choices (black or blue).

    My helmet is red and silver. It didn't match anything at first, but now it does match my folding bike. An accident. I have it because it fits like no other. It's my second specialized helmet and I have yet to find another one that is as comfortable as this one on me.

    "crystal blue & silver" The silver matches my bike....sort of.....and blue, well, blue is my favorite color. Does it match my bike? Not really. Does it match what I wear.....not really. *lol*

    My helmet is something that Giro calls "white camo." I wanted white for visibility, but plain white seemed so...plain white. White camo's a cool pattern of varying shades of off-white. Soooo much better than just white.

    Pink and leopard-spotted Giro. It's, um, visible.

    Strange as this may sound, I spent almost 18 months trying to find a helmet in the colour(s) I wanted, price range and fit. didn't feel like spending over $200 on helmet.

    It drove me abit nuts...in the end it's a red helmet I got under $100.00. I wanted something just flashy in right way, but more visible in bright yellow or similar. Visibility is way more important to me. I never thought of matching helmet to any of my bikes.. at any point in time.

    I definitely wanted to avoid predominantly dark colours..I have black hair..just makes zero sense.

    Light grey, black trim.

    I had to laugh.. when I read the thread's Title, all I could think of was that darned book we had to read in school: What Color is Your Parachute? So glad this wasn't a similar reference!

    I have a red helmet to match my old red bike that I no longer ride. The helmet and the bike are pretty hideous.

    I know sport a white Vigor. I love everything about it. I even love the fact that it makes me head look larger than it actually is.

    I have 2 helmets. One is blue, with a little yellow in it. I wear it for cold weather riding and leave the straps set up so I can fit the beanie under it. The other helmet is yellow.
    All of my helmets have been yellow or blue. I had one really ugly olive green one and that's what I was wearing when I crashed in January of 07.
    None of them match my bike, which is black, with a little red and white.
