Subject: [RC] helmet question
Date: Mon, 08 Sep 2003 19:47:35 -0600
for those who wear helmets --or know about them -- any opinion on
whether a "horse" helmet is better than a "bike" helmet?
I ask because I just read something somewhere (sorry, can't remember)
which said, in relation to "horse" helmets, "this may not be the best
helmet for the job" --which I found rather disturbing!
since those guys on bikes regularly crash at 30+ mph on pavement (joseba
beloki, anyone?), maybe I should be wearing my bike helmet & giving up
my english style headgear ... plus the bike helmet has more vents ...
anyway, interested in opinions, facts, thoughts, whatever.

with several of both types of helmet to choose from
