Hola... I'm glad you're ok. I just bought a helmet. Never wore one before, but my brother up in Seattle was just hospitalized last weekend after getting hit by a car and his helmet was smashed. Saved his head. He called me up and begged me to start wearing one. So I went and bought an expensive Giro Pneumo, since I knew that if I spent enough money on the damn thing I'd feel guilty and wasteful if I didn't wear it. I also wanted something that wouldn't feel too uncomfortable. There are so many vents it feels like it funnels MORE air onto my head. Weird. And it's not too heavy. So, I'm glad I got it. I've been wearing it for a couple days now and have endured sneers from other fixed gear riders in Oakland, but c'est la vie.
