10 Must-Have Accessories for Brooklyn Cyclists
Bern Helmet
I like these helmets because they’re a little less what someone riding the Tour de France in full-on spandex would wear, and a little more what normal people on skateboards who are not on steroids but might be on other kinds of cooler drugs would wear. Also it’s black, which is good because it’s slimming, and helmets already make your head look like a lollipop (or is that just my head?). Anyway, these helmets are great.
Alternatively, for one day only, the city of New York is offering a free helmet to any wannabe cyclist. So check out this Facebook page and consider going to get fitted for a brand-new helmet. The Department of Transportation really wants you to be safe. And I guess I do too? Sure I do! Wear a helmet.
