I see a lot of creativity on people's helmets and I've been thinking of ways to do my share. A friend of mine, who has a yellow MSR helmet, put black polka-dots on her helmet, so it looks like a ladybug. What I see a lot of is people who put their name and sometimes the name of their cycling club on the rear of their helmet. For example: Potomac Peddlers Fred Foo I'd like to do this, but I think an obviously fictious name would be much more amusing. Especially because I know that when I'm cycling hard I can stare at the person's name in front of me for a long time, before I actually read and comprehend it. So it would be fine if it was something that had to be pondered over. On the other hand, there's not much space back there, so it has to be rather short. For example: Intergalactic Bicycling Team Martian Cycling Team Animal House Riders Zen Maintanence Squad Let me know if you like any of these, how you decorate your helmet, or if you can think of any good team names (or anything funny for that matter) for my helmet. I won't summarize any responses, so post to the net if you want others to see it. If you want to know what I finally use, get on that bicycle and start peddling. I'm out there somewhere.
