    Same here, but blue. Before that was pea (pee?) green.

    I heat up really good and the Havoc has plenty of vents for my noggin to cool off.

    Unfortunately those same vents have gotten my shaven dome stung by yellow jackets twice in the
    last 6 months.

    You won't be anything like Lance until at least 2010 coz you'll need to win a few TdF between now and then:D
    I wear a Bell Xc helmet and a Netti AXN full face.
    Both are good.
    The Bell has taken a fair beating (had a tree fall on me after a bushfire):eek:

    Depends how much you think your head is worth really....

    I don't use a helmet, I'd rather be freestylin it. I'm a better rider than most of y'all and I'm
    smart too so I don't crash nearly as much as you luzers PLUS when I do crash it's not that bad and I
    can just use my hands to cover up /me GQ head.

    P.S. - Brits, PLEASE go brush your teeth!

    To be honest, I don't really know what it is. It's black and has Avanti on a coupla little plates in
    places, and "Exo" on others, so I suppose it's an Avanti "Exo". Best of all it fits my big noggin
    and budget and wasn't lime bloody green like some of the other offerings at the time.

    I suppose asking why on Earth you cross-posted this to several basketball groups is just asking for
    trouble....

    Giro Helios for the road bike. Giro Gila for xc riding. Giro Mad Max 2 for the DH'ing. And
    some buckethead bmx helmet (can't remember the brand, took the stickers off) that I use for
    trials riding...

    -- the important part -- Whatever fits my head.

    -- the not so important part -- Bell X-Ray for XC. Replaced a Giro Gila (cracked), which replaced a
    Giro Exodus (stolen in AZ) Leedom Scream High Performance for skiing (yeah SNELL rating)
