  1. First, the recent helmet thread got me thing about replacing my own "highly"
    used bucket that has given me a few nice yrs of svc. I intend to replace it
    soon, and was wondering what you guys do with your used, worn out lids? Are
    there any mfg. that do some sort of helmet recycling program?

    I use my old ones for the helmet cam (I don't like putting gooey velcro
    tape on my new one and for a night riding set up (so I don't have to
    keep taking off the light bracket).

    I"d toss it. The styrofoam breaks downs down upon prolonged exporsure to UV
    etc.,

    Leave it as a spare in your car/truck. So when you forget yours you won't
    have to go through the...go home and get it or the ride without conundrum.

    I keep one around as a spare/loaner and give the old ones to good will.

    Never thought of that. I always seem to need a new one before the old
    one wears out. Guess I get my money's worth. :-)

    Good point. To coin a tired phrase "been there, done that"

    Thanks.

    This is a good idea too, as I'm about to "upgrade"the oldest of my two
    kids bikes (birthday coming up, she'll be 11). I probably will be turning
    her ol' Schwinn over to those fine folks, or the Salvation Army. The local
    FD also has a fine used bike program for impoverished kids. I'll check it
    out...

    Thanks.

    After his next door neighbor's days on the crane and the Angels beating
    up the hapless Braves tonight (with Erstad KNOCKING OUT their weak
    catcher for the go-ahead run), he'll be the next headline. "IDIOT GOES
    UP IN FLAMES"
