Things that make you go hmmmmm....

I wonder how long it will be before it no longer feels odd to have my neck, especially my cervical spine, exposed while wearing my bike helmet? And no, I am *not* going to put a camail on it.

MN has no mandatory helmet law. I could wear an Elizabethan ruff iffen I wanted to.

The reason the bike helmet feels odd is because I am used to wearing a much heavier and longer helmet plus a leather and closed-cell foam gorget with an 8" 'tail' that covers my spine and runs down into the body armor. The barbute actually restricts my head movement a lot more than the gorget does.

An Elizabethan ruff'd make you /real/ memorable at the bike shop, purple hair or otherwise...

Kidding aside, do be careful out there.
