Before I answer this question, a little background on my weekend’s ride: Redline Mono 9 enjoying the sun and dirt. Look at the paint sparkle. This ride started out harmlessly enough. It was a nice climb up Marshall Canyon for some fun singletrack at the top of the canyon. Along the way we went through…

In fact some of them even look better with their helmets than without. So here’s my dilema, there are tons of…
