Had to include the second less professional review, because it's so much fun to see someone so stoked by a new toy. :rolleyes: :wink2:

And yes, it's sorta spendy...

When I'm riding, I usually try to focus on what's in front of me ... if you need to worry about what's behind you then you're riding too slow :yes:

pshhhhh concussions are cool... what is wrong with you guys!

nah, j/k, after my first BI with subsequent memory loss I always have a brain bucket, and a spare for folks I see riding without one.

I use a full face motocross helm for these reasons...

UK company.... hence the accent on the second review. For some reason, they don't have a dealer list page on their website. In their FAQ, they say you should contact them with your location/region area and they will direct you to a dealer. The blipped onto the radar a few years ago, first model was less than inspiring, jumped back into the foxhole and did 3-5 of R&D, and resurfaced with a product that is garnering much more favorable reviews.

I must confess, this one also caught my eye:

Apparently, my fondness for platypus extends beyond kites. :rolleyes: ;-)

I used to carry a spare helmet and offer it to others.
People were polite and would put it on until I walked away , then took it off again. No one ever took it , wore it and thanked me like I somehow expected?

Can't save people from themselves ! :no:

more failblog laughs



bobalooie57 - 4-5-2010 at 07:56 AM

Kinda makes you want to get an OBE on vid, just so you could post on failblog! Oh yeah, I've got that vid from last year, getting flipped out of the buggy by the 2M Beamer in high wind on the runway...Maybe I'll try to post that!:dunno:

Drewculous - 5-5-2010 at 06:49 AM

I can envision cheap, mass-produced, nanotechnology/airbag protection someday in the near future.

bobalooie57 - 5-5-2010 at 07:47 AM

I used your title, Drew, but not sure if it went to failblog, short, only 6 sec. Shows how fast things can go wrong!

I bet that left a mark!!!! LOL

But you was cool about it, although I can't read lips.

Drewculous - 5-5-2010 at 03:57 PM

classic carl! I remember that one from a while back... you need to break out that camera rig again... those were pretty good shots!
