I’ve been thinking of moving my kids to full face helmets. Their mom keeps buying them these awful Walmart skate helmets that weigh a ton and don’t fit. The girl especially is a daredevil and, to be unfair for a moment, she’s going to need her looks.
I broke my thumb last year when I was commuting. It does make you stop and think that maybe you should be wearing something better.
When you ride the motorcycle, you're not the motor burning a bunch of calories.
Parenting tip--the bigger the helmet, the more likely your daughter will ditch it when you're not looking.
