Quest for a Helmet
Before I ever had anything together for the street luge, I knew that I needed to get a full motorcycle helmet. First stop, Mike’s Bikes… Unfortunately they didn’t have anything there. Nothing on street luging, no helmets that I liked (or were anywhere near my price range), and not much more then, “There’s this shop that might know something about something on the other side of town.” Yeah, that’s helpful.
We went across to the other side of town to ‘Air‘. Unfortunately the guy there was about as helpful as a pimp at a women’s rights rally. (you like that one? hehe…) Ended up getting some trucks and wheels there, but not much else. Not even any ideas.
Ended up going by the Money Man Pawn by my house and found the helmet. Listed in there at $30, online the equivalent is around $55. Thanks to my amazing bargaining dealings… and having a friend who works there, I ended up getting it for $20. It fits perfectly, feels good, and now with some de-fogger doesn’t fog up. I love it!
