Catching air is easy landing is not
While i own a bike i had not taken a ride in long time. My husband on the other hand loves to go for bike rides. During covid i decided to start biking with my husband. I did not own a helmet the last time i rode however a few years before covid i had got my husband a helmet as a gift. Before our first ride i remember asking my husband if he wore his helmet. He hesitated as he told me no like i would be mad at him. I told him that it was fine either way but i wanted to know if i should get one if he was wearing his. Needless to say we enjoyed quit a few helmetless rides together. This spring i decided to take a ride by myself and wanting to be safe grabbed my husband's helmet. Afterwards I decided i was getting my own. I found a persist in red and bought the medium. On our next ride i put it on and I was in awe at how well it fit and felt. Not heavy but comfortable and secure. On the first ride it did not move about on my head or i interfere with my sun glasses. After 20 miles i was sold. I am looking forward to many more rides with this helmet as a bonus i also aaw this helmet has high ranks on the Virginia tech website
