Cycling Helmets

[stearman65]

Realistically only D even vaguely approaches an approved colour scheme for cyclists apparel.
Take into account that the OP claims to be in excess of 60 and cycling on the pavements when the general rule of thumb is
two wheels and no stabilizers means throw them back on to the road whether or not there is oncoming traffic

Actually I'm 76, it's 60 years since I did any serious cycling.

What a splendid idea

Just in case anyone is getting too close to a full on helmet debate please meditate on the following picture for a few moments

Don't make me break out the whale music

This is a kitten picture for a helmet thread:

Teetering, going over the edge...

Whatever turns him on ...

Can't tell the sex of the kitten, but I think "it" is quite enjoying the helmet

I will not vote until there is a ladybird spotted red and black one with a fake mohawk hairstyle.

How about this one? Not quite but close.

It's only a picture of a kitten in a helmet.

Pretty sure @Drago was commenting on the closeness to the edge of this thread after a post which strayed into helmet benefit/lack of territory and has therefore, I think, been mod-deleted (thank goodness! - well done mods). Edit: Let's stick to aesthetics: at least noone can appeal to scientific research conclusions to support their viewpoint; or can they?

Kitten looked pretty stable to me.

 

[Drago]

Some kind of pith helmet arrangement would be becoming of the older gent, perhaps combined with a Roger Moore safari jacket?

Does a kitten really need to wear a helmet? After all, how many kittens died from head injuries before helmets were invented?

Viking cats do?

Perhaps it went 'over the edge' because this is in the original post..

"..would welcome comments as to their usefulness or effectiveness". Ask a question - get an opinion. Just sayin'.

Ok, I can get on board with a cat in a hat but I can't resist taking the bait re: Viking helmets and horns

 

[coffeejo]

They would have, had they thought of it.

You're right. All cultures need cats in hats.

Especially knitted horns!
