Heck, go buy the latest issue of Mountain Bike Action. There are a dozen mail order companies selling helmets in that range.

You can also pick up a DOT/Snell approved MX helmet for around $100.00. It won't weigh much more!

It must take a lot of effort to be that lazy kid. Why don't you apply some of it towards looking intelligent for once?

Actually, since you're attacking people for grammar, the word "towards" does not exist in the English language. The word is "toward."

He's got you there . Try www.beyondbikes.com they have some cheap full face lids, there are a heap of other sites, but there's seriously only about $10 difference between most of them.

hahaha, this comment actually made me laugh out loud also.

man, i'm gonna get in trouble for wasting company time on the internet, haha.

about the helmet, i'm not sure how good these ones are, but they're cheap... you're gonna need a membership to the mec to order it from them though: Pryme Al Full Face Helmet, $99 CAD


oops, just as i was about to post, i saw that they only ship it within canada. oh well.

Its no more correct than saying "U" as a variant of "you". Any professor would tell you so. Good luck with that Heritage Dictionary though. Hope it works out for you.

not that i care much for this debate, but being that i'm really bored here at work, i thought i'd do a quick check on dictionary.com to see what it says about "towards". i found this:



Usage Note: Some critics have tried to discern a semantic distinction between toward and towards, but the difference is entirely dialectal. Toward is more common in American English; towards is the predominant form in British English.
link: https://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=towards

with that being said, i don't think raiyn is british...

off topic, burly is correct in saying that towards is not a word...and on top of that i really hope you meant to spell "worse" with an E instead of "worst" which is so aweful is makes me cringe...
