The one that keeps me for getting dain bramaged. Currently that's a Giro very similar to free_pizza's above.^^^^^

I accompanied a buddy to the ER on Saturday after he stuffed himself into the trail head-first during a particularly nasty crash while landing. Helmet was toast, but he had a pretty good concussion, short-term memory of about a minute, and completely lost track of day, month (thought it was April), year, and who the President was - for about three hours. If he hadn't been wearing that helmet he'd have bought himself a trip to the operating table, not just the ER and a CAT scan.

On another note, his bike escaped unscathed. :lol:

I don't really like helmets, it's a safety thing for me and that's about it. I have a Gilo something-or-other with a black finish.

http://www.aimcomm.com/users/dminor/...startup_70.jpg Wearing full-face before it was popular. My faithful Bell Star, circa 1970.

My new helmet this season is going to be the Hurricane Flight too :) . Awesome protection. Just can't decide between the red and the matte black yet.

Yup, that's me 'ahead of the pack' - - 100cc class (in the days before there WAS a 125 class) on a Van Tech-framed rotary-valve 100 Suzuki. That bike ate Kawasaki Green Streaks and Hodaka Super Rats :) ! Pict was taken at Startup, WA about 1970. I swore by my Star because I raced flattrack too, and it saved my head in a nasty high-speed crash on the big oval in Bellingham.

I think gastro should ride full face all the time. He's much easier to look at that way.
