Last week I finnally convinced myself that I wont look THAT stupid with a helmet on... so I ordered one... it's coming on tuesday in the mail. I got the bern helmet with the cute plaid insert thing. All it took was for my LBS to actually start carrying these cute little helmets for me to realize 'well I don't have to look like a dork...(no offense to those of you with fully functioning logic, unlike mine)...those are actually alright looking...'
But seriously I feel like an *** not wearing one for as long as I have been. I'm very very lucky. Last year that was me on the picture to the left. knock on wood till tuesday... So if anyone, like myself, who hates looking unfashionable has also been avoiding the dreaded bike dork look, check out these ones, they're actually cute!!! And the liners are interchangable, they also have little visors for the summer and a variety of prints.

word of warning: some models look exactly alike but one will only qualify as a 'hard hat' legally while others meet the CPSC standard for helmets. I believe the "brighton" is the hard hat one.
I am glad you were wearing a helmet too! And I am glad that I will be wearing one now as well![]()
