That's something like what I was thinking of. People shouldn't make fun of you riding a bike with any helmet on. You ever see people wearing the $9.99 Wal-Mart specials? I have, and I have worn one before because it was what was available to protect my noggin. That helmet was freaking huge. Nobody said a word to me. I don't think they'll say anything to you either, and if they do just think of their ignorance. You're wearing it for safety reasons, and you like the look and feel of it. That's what's important. If you feel safe and comfortable you won't feel like a fool. Trust me.
