I rarely wear a helmet. I realize it's intended benefit but I find myself wearing it more for reduction of wind in the face than anything else.

Got one with the drop down visors, ain't to bad to wear, but the helmet hair sucks.

Al, the dates are 09 July-15 July.

I hate helmet hair! Stan is lucky, he puts enough goo in his hair the cops think it IS a helmet.

I see you sprung for a room with a view, Russ.

Tracy, look into the Akoury helmet. Really small and light, DOT and fits in a saddlebag. I have one but I can't wear it because of the noise. My kid, BIL and nephew all have them.

I could see Stan having problems with helmet hair, I was just kidding.

Dates we know, we're working whether the both of us or just I should go.

I just picked up a new carbon fiber half helmet, it is a little pricier than most but it is tiny and lightweight. They have a coupon too.

A crisp on-commute good morning to you woodmeisters! Russ, I'm glad we could bring you this unseasonably warm weather for your visit.
I'll be checking in with ya'll a little bit later as I'm still dealing with a fair amount of chaos during this busy season. Right now it's looking a little bleak for an opportunity to run into the Metro before you're gone Russ.....
