The "Show off your helmet" thread (ooo matron!)

After being shown up by Neil due to all his XTR cranks and bling... thought I'd show off my helmet (oh we need Podie or Vixpy in here for some gags...)

Mine:

Dammit, I've only got an old school Giro Mad Max in carbon...



Have had my eye on a new Carbon Troy Lee

Felt a bit noddy riding in this morning having zip-tied a light to my helmet.

Oh well. Not long until it'll be dark in the mornings and it won't look so silly then...

Rather the helmet gets scratched than your face though

Tried to get some spares for my helmet yesterday... to be told that its so old the spares aren't even made any more, let alone stocked

Dear Santa, ...

How much is one of these lids? I've got a bog standard bike helmet jobby but if I start do crazier things, I think i'll need more protection.....

Not as bad as they usedto be, but still wince-worthy...

how about if I just wear my motorcycle lid! Apart from looking like a total numpty, it's got to provide much better performance than the MTB equivilants. Afterall, it cost me shy of 400 quid!!!



P.S. Only kidding....not quite that sad!!! :P

The carbon full faces are a couple of hundred. You can pick up a decent full face for £80ish though.
