What Glue For Helmet And ....

[Tas38]

Hi Everyone !!

It time to start riding bike again, all last year I didn't wear a helmet. Well I just got a Schwinn
Thrasher helmet from walmart, after my 6 year old told me I better wear one, or I'll get hurt. I
want to glue the visor and padding on better, can I use any glue or better yet epoxy for it.

Also I just starting riding last year, only just got use to riding when winter hit and I stopped.
How hard will it be to get use to it again, after setting 3 to 3 1/2 mo of not doing it ???

Thanks For Any Help !! tas38

your muscles will be tired and your butt will be sore. Did you work out at all or have you been
sitting around?

Yeah, I didn't even know I had (3M 77) stuff that I could've used more often than I thought.

I was just sitting around most of the time, and no riding at all I live in PA. Thanks for the site

Speaking from personal experience...

Your butt will get sore faster. When winter hit, I was doing 3-hour rides with no adverse effects.
Now I'm moderately sore after an hour and three-quarters.

Your endurance and strength will be less. I'm not pushing it....just trying to ride as often as work
permits and waiting for the miles to add up.

I went thru the whole winter thinking "This is just an anomaly. I rode all through last winter.
It'll warm up in a couple days. No sense inflicting the StairMaster on myself..."

I won't do *that* again...

Tas, glad to see you've gotten a little wiser this year.....For next year get a better helmet.

Peace, Bill The mind serves properly as a window glass rather than as a reflector, that is, the mind
should give an immediate view instead of an interpretation of the world.
