I got myself a Joe Rocket RKT101 in blue carbon!  Yay me!  Bill inspired me to buy myself some new gear once in a while.  :)

Cool! Jim has the same exact helmet.

When are you going riding?

I need the sunshine in the morning, I'm heading for the open road.

OMG, how many helmets does Jim have now?  It seems like he's getting a new one every month.  :)

I've been eying the closeout on newenough for a while now, but just couldn't pull the trigger (especially on that copper color).  Luckily, I found one on ebay and got it for $100 + $20 shipping.  Saved myself about $30 and got the color I wanted.  I'm so freaking proud of myself.

And to answer April's question, I'll probably start riding again when I get my new helmet....  and iridium shield.  Yay me!

So have you ridden with it yet?

I went on my first long ride with it on today.

The good: It vents incredibly well.

The bad: its loud. It made a really bad howling sound, but I installed a chin curtain in it and that helped. It fits just like my HJC FS-15, but it seemed to take a little longer to break in.

So far I'm happy with it. ;D
