well I reckon that if you're going to wear a helmet you might as well enjoy
them - I have loads!
A black superlight Las one, an orange AND a bleu Casco depending on
horse/outfit.. (orange also being very good for wearing during hunting season!)
a black velvet one also from Casco for when I feel like wearing something a bit
less 'visible'... a royal bleu Las without holes for going thru forest at speed
on dark ( comes with frontlight attachment system) or cold days...
so Juli - indulge!!
I def. recommand those two brands if they are available in the US, VERY
comfortable, very light ( less than 300 grams/10 oz. mostly) and very good
fit!

ps changing helmets on long rides feels great by the way - right up there
with changing your socks for a pair of dry ones
I have a Charles Owen from my jockey and
eventing days. I love that helmet, but it can get warm at times...I am
thinking I might get a Tipperary for trail and endurance and keep my Owen
for jumping and cross country. My husband thinks I am ridiculous to want two
helmets!! There is another company that makes a skull cap for eventing that
are a little cheaper than the Charles Owens are, but they still work great.
I think it might be International that makes them.
