This is why I will never buy a "cheap" helmet first off.

Secondly, I hope that all young riders (yes I am one of them) read this and understand that when riding or take on a passenger they need to be safe.

I hope that she has learned a lesson here and teaches her friends.

I must admit the pic of her throwing up the shocker was dissapointing but it shows her age.

Thanks for posting this.

Wag and I believe that if it is too hot to wear the gear, it is too hot to ride.
