I know I say this every time but this time I really mean it... I'M IN LOVE. I'm shout out loud, head over heels, want to ride through rainbows with unicorns in love. WITH MY NEW HELMET.
Yes my extensive collection has a new addition. A flash shiny new edition. I've been obsessed with owning a chrome helmet since the first of forever see and I finally found one by Hardnutz. Together we are causing quite a stir curbside. Other cyclists keep stopping me and asking where I got it from. Whilst I'm replying I notice their line of vision change from admiring my helmet- to admiring their reflection in my helmet- to being disappointed at their chromeless reflection staring back at them- to then just looking plain jealous.
Not only does it act as a great tool of envy which is always nice, it also doubles up as my own personal portable mirror. Never again will I rock up somewhere with helmet hair or a muddy face as I will be able to check my bad self out in its chrome glory.
Also, as I was riding home the other evening a fly suicided itself in my eye and thanks to my helmet I didn't have to ride home with one eye closed.
Did I mention I heart my new helmet?
