2008 Patriots Day Freedom Rally and Protest Ride2 viewsOn April 19, 2008, the 233rd anniversary of "the shot heard 'round the world" in Lexington, patriots gathered at the Wake County Speedway, and planned the helmet law protest ride to the NC state capital. If you look closely, one of the patriots is dressed in costume as a continental army regular with Tri-Corner Helmet. More reinforcements kept arriving, so by the time we saddled up, the count was 72 riders, many of whom rode lidless under OLD GLORY and a Gadsden-yellow protest banner "HELMET LAW PROTEST". Simultaneous protests took place in NC and elsewhere in the USA.

2009 CBA-ABATE Independence Day ride to protest helmet law2 viewsAbout 50 riders met in the Roses department store parking lot Saturday morning. American flags buttons and patches glinted from leather jackets, and full-size flags flew from the rear of chrome choppers.

Some riders chose not to wear helmets for the brief jaunt down Wilkinson Boulevard. Others wore the required headgear

Jan's favorite helmet (retired)98 viewsThis was a real beauty of a partial coverage helmet, made of the highest quality protective materials, self-certified by the manufacturer as compliant with federal laws that apply to new helmets. It even had a secondary retention system in addition to a primary retention system. The aerodynamics and light weight of this helmet made it ideal for no fatigue and neck strain during long rides, and most weather conditions. The only problem from wearing this one was when the eager NC Highway Patrol trooper nearly ran Jan down with his SUV in what seemed to be road rage. They pull up recklessly close behind you in order to try and get you to run. After two days of trial in Wake County Superior Court, it is now retired for 5 years, under orders of Judge Donald Stephens, for no obvious reason because the Judge refused to document an explanation.

Southern Cal Summer Lid0 viewsIf you have to wear 'em in the summer, why fry your brains in a helmet that prevents heat dissipation and causes heat stroke or loss of concentration on the road? The So Cal Summer Lid is from a B.O.L.T. of California member.Mar 08, 2010

Southern Cal Summer Lid2 viewsA member of B.O.L.T. of California manufactured and certified this one. While other folk are passing out from the heat not dissipating, air conditioning helps. If you've got to wear 'em, minimize the torture.Mar 08, 2010
