A friend of mine has been trying to sell me his wind shield to put on my bike. That is sounding like a good idea all of a sudden.


Actually, I did take a pretty good chunk of gravel in the helmet this past summer. It sounded like a firecracker went off inside the helmet. Surprising ly no damage to the helmet except for a little paint scraped off.
