    helmet size

    does anyone else have a 'small head'? I was trying on helmets today and the infant size fit my head! I opted for the 'youth' size though as it was a little more comfortable

    the adult size was sooo huge on me that it wobbled all over the place. Of course the first thing two of my friends said was 'oh it says this helmet is for people under 8 years old---aww they must be trying to tell you, that you have the brain size of an 8 year old too'

    gee thanks.

    Hmm, I've got the opposite problem - a big bulbous bubblehead.

    I know of a great helmet with flying pigs on it that might work.

    Seriously - I have a pretty small head (narrow anyway). I have the Giro Venus helmet. It's adjustable (as I think most helmets are) to a fairly small size. And it's purple to boot

    well there was this super cute kids helmet that was pink/lilac and it had little siamese cats all over it. I have 2 siamese and I am waiting for my pink jersey in the mail...soooooo tempting, but it said ages 5-8 so I made myself put it back LOL

    Oh man, that would have been awesome! Maybe a little cutesy, sure, but if it fits and you like it, who can argue with that -- it's not a fashion show, right? Gotta have fun

    I am all about cutesy

    I know you all take this very seriously, so I hope no one gets offended by my silly posts-I am just learning about biking...have had my own bike only about 2weeks now...and am just having fun!

    I am kind of a fun/silly person anyhow-I would paint my car pink if I could, and always enjoy dressing up nice or in a fun style regardless of the event.

    My poor boyfriend Tom, not sure if he would ride with me with that helmet though! He says all the time '"it's not about looking cute!" Well why not have fun and look cute too??? Oh well.

    So everyone, please don't think I am a total spaz...just having some fun with my new interest
