i love my helmet!


Some folks ask me why I ride with a full face helmet. Some say I look like Darth Vader. I jokingly tell them it is to protect my modeling career. Yesterday I had another reminder why I laid down so many pesos for it. Picture me being ejected from my bike, flying through the air and landing face first onto a half-basketball sized rock. My lips barely grazed the rock before my face. My chin guard totally saved me. I shouted many times with my face still before the rock, "I love my helmet! I LOVE my helmet!" I know its not bullet proof I and can still hurt my precious face, but I still love my helmet!

I think your helmet is great Heather! And, to those boo-birds who spew negativity ... ask them how their face is feeling when it gets peeled off after falling on a gravel track. Oh yeah, I'm sure they'll be asking where you bought your Darth Vader helmet after that. ;) Keep on rockin' girl!
