In 2010 I ... got a helmet to rock with that bicycle

Summer hit early in MN - really early. It was 90 degrees more than once in May. Wow. So with plenty of prime biking weather, it was high time I snagged a helmet. Of course I called in the help of my fave biking pal, Carissa, who knew I'd want something a little bit different to compliment my vintage ride.

C proved the ideal guide to biking on the greenway, which gave us an off-road route to our helmet hunting destination, Calhoun Cycle. Meet the Nutcase helmets:


Super fun and cute, right? I had a really hard time deciding between this patterned model:

Nutcase Helmet in Pixie Stix

And this Super Solids model:

Nutcase Helmet in Vanilla Sky

The winner? Vanilla Sky! The best part? These helmets proclaim "I love my brain" on the back. You're darn right I do.
