So my wife gave me a $100 gift certificate for Cycle Gear for XMAS. We saw some sort of bright golden orb in the sky today so I took my new Subaru to CG to shop and get out of the house.
After looking at some boots, I saw they had a big helmet sale. Arie, Shoei, Bilt, etc. What better time to shop for my first Modular helmet to try out and see if I liked it?
I have always needed large type helmet sizes....but this session of trying out helmets for size would have had you rolling in the aisles with laughter. XX Large I couldnt even get the sides over the top of my head with many brands! One XXLarge was stuck hard on my head so I took off my glasses and got it off. Ouch.
The only XXX large they had was an inexpensive Bilt Demon. It went on pretty easily, there was lots of periphrial vision, good vertical vision and the mechanisms worked well. I bought it out of fear that I would never find another Modular that had the vision charactoristics I require and that I could acutally get on my head!
So those of you that think I have a "big head" are right.....
