I'm not looking for a debate here. You won't convince me that it should be anything other than personal choice.
However, I missed yesterday's ride purely because I don't hold with the "dress code" and unless I want to not go on any more retro rides it looks like I need to waste some money and get a new one. I do have an old one for when I go tractor riding, (I wear it whenever off road) but it causes me to sweat gallons on the road.
Is there any we can get stock from the USA or Australia? The reason I ask is that even though the model of helmet may be the same, because the Europe/UK safety test is so slack, manufacturers cut costs and materials for the market here.
So, what is recommended? It will likely only be used on retro rides. It must be light, vented and unobtrusive. I really don't want the pleasure of cycling to become a chore.
Thanks as ever.
