Did the usual 22.5 today. I rode without a helmet for the first time in 4 years. When I was getting ready to leave this morning, I couldn't find my helmet. I finally tracked it down to the bed of my pickup, where it had been left when we came home Sunday! It was wet from the morning dew, so I went without. The odd thing is that it is really noisy riding without a helmet. I twist the straps just in front of my ears, which tends to push the airflow out and around my ears, it is much quieter for me riding with the helmet on. I also noticed that the sweat ran down my face. Needless to say, I will have it on again tomorrow. It is getting a little hard to keep clean anymore, so I ordered a new one this afternoon. After 4 years, I think I got my $24 worth from the old one!
