I was riding without mine for a couple rides, cuz it was warm and just more comfortable.  Then I thought the better of it last week and started wearing it again.  Coming back into town last week after a full day, into a road crossing, big doe comes out of nowhere, and I stuff him straight on.  He bounces off my hood, windshield comes flying off, plastic pieces everywhere.  If I had made contact with my body and that deer it could have gone bad quickly.  Glad I had my vest on.

Picked up a new Mission today.

It was fucking cold last night. Had to have the GMax plugged in and it kept clear but I had a cold spot on my left cheek. 

I'm too fucking old and work too hard to be miserable when I'm supposed to be having fun.

 

I got rid of my Oxygen after 3 seasons and bought one of those.  So far so good in 500 miles, and had freezing rain conditions one day so I had to keep it plugged in, but it seems to stay clear normally without the cord which is good.  That flimsy ass visor already snapped off and broke in 2 pieces, just moving it with my hand, not impressed with that part at all.  I haven't been out in really cold weather yet though, so we'll see how it works when that day day comes.

So far so good. Only one trip, didn't get heated as they didn't have any. Bud with bv2s had his fog, mine didn't. Nice helmet so far.

Crap, sorry.  I had to pick up the pieces of a dude that got wrecked last year without one.  Mine has a monster dent in it.  Not interested in the carnage that can occur without.

So what happened, besides excessive speed, booze, and driving out of control ?

Well,  you missed animal collision but, that pretty much covers it.

How did you like your oxygen helmet? Did you find it to be overly warm?

None of the above .

Came out of the woods at night in to a chisel plowed field that was tilled up the day before it froze so never got smoothed out  . Best guess a arm hit frozen clump got tossed off sled on to a frozen clump of clay . Busted shoulder 11 busted ribs broken finger punctured lung   And covid back home today

It was just coming out of ghost road on to airport field in maple plain . Fucker road back to mound after wreck . Went from mound to shelter today not even close to a smooth ride . Had to be fucking unbearable pure adrenaline is only explanation. 

Can believe all the sleds out running today on snert

I liked it when it worked right, but it started to act up in yr 2 and 3.  Like take 15 minutes to warm up and clear out every morning, so first 15 minutes of the ride I'm fumbling with my 600 plus dollar helmet.  Mine would only stay clear if I had it on 3 bars which was too warm on warm days.  It was useless without the cord which I didn't like.   I liked the light weight and visibility though.  I sold it on ebay for 400 bucks and moved on.
