In AZ I do.

I don't enjoy riding without one - especially when a truck flips up a rock and it hits you in the face....

in cali. yes in az. no
My problem stems from this. If I choose to go without, same as if I choose not to wear a seatbelt, it should beMY choice, eventhough I wouldwear oneregardless.

So when should we expect seatblets......never mind, don't want to give them any ideas.

What is the brand of this comfortable helmet? I have not found one yet but a HD half helmet that I have comes fairly close.
It's a full face Vega. Never heard of it until I decided to go shopping at every bike shop in town.

No helmet law here in Maine but I won't ride without one.
Been riding for over 29 years now and have had more than my share of close calls.
I have seen first hand the consequences of not wearing one.
Ride safe!
