Is using a moto helmet taboo?
I went on my first mountain bike group ride. I got a little... cocky. Hopped over a root and kissed a rotten stump.. with my face. (40 feet from the parking lot.)
I have a nice full face dirt bike helmet that I'd like to use, but I'm not sure if it's taboo or not. I know those helmets are heavy, and I most likely won't wear it on the way up, but it'll prevent me from spending another few hundred dollars on helmets!
(Oh yeah, I destroyed my tiny road biking helmet.)
Opinions?
