On occasion, I break out my skid-lid helmet. I know a lot of people say it sucks for protection. Fine. It's probably better than nothing and it lets me really interact with my surroundings. I can hear and feel the wind on my face. It's fantastic. Definitely colder than the full-face helmet, but more fun too.
This freedom is exactly what I was after when I bought the bike. So far I am loving it.
On a pullout on Lake Mary Road.
I have yet to do work on the brakes. Will get there, I'm sure. I hear one of the shops in town probably carries brake pads for this bike.
Until then, I am learning what stopping distance I need and experimenting with what the bike can and cannot do comfortably. So far it is performing admirably.
