Helmets and dress

Always wear your helmet, and always wear it correctly.

Here is the correct way to wear a helmet:
Bike Helmet correct forward tilt

1.  Eyes:  Make sure your helmet is tilted forward in the front. You should see the bottom rim of your helmet when you look up.

2.  Ears:  The side straps of your helmet should form a 'V' under your ears. They should feel a little tight, but still remain comfortable.
