A new helmet

Today my new helmet arrived. It's a Giro Ionos, a slightly different model than the Giro Atmos I've had for several years.

This one has yellow streaks and has a nice reflective surface, something that's perfect for the night rides that I typically have these days coming home from work.

After I it was delivered, I used the extra padding pack that came with it to augment my old helmet -- the padding has long since worn from it.

And what do you know? There was a crack running down the front of my old helmet.

Maybe not enough to keep me from using it if it was my only helmet.

But since I have this new one, why risk it?
