First ride with the new helmet

It was a great day today but sadly I was too busy to enjoy it on 2 wheels. Finally, around 8pm I got done all of the chores I decided I was going to do tonight and I headed out for a night time ride. I headed down Beach Street and then West on I-30 into Fort Worth. I turned north on Rt183 and headed back home. I put 30 miles on the bike.

The new helmet performed VERY well. It didn't have quite as much airflow thru it as I was expecting but then I realized the airflow was being blocked by the windshield on the bike. The face portal is much better than my old one. I found I was able to view the speedometer located on the tank easier now. I had to tilt my old helmet down to view it. The new one is a just a eye glance down now, very nice.


Overall, no pinching or binding at all during the ride. Cristina did laugh at me for my "corn-row" hair style I had after removing it. That could be an issue after riding to work. I might have to take a comb to work or wet my hair once I'm there.

The weather is suppose to be nice tomorrow so I'll probably be on 2 wheels heading to work. Look out for me.
