Those black Tupperware cereal bowl helmets can be checked out at a home demonstration show in your neighborhood.

At first I was like "check your helmet" isn't that normal for cruiser riders (as in check your helmet at the door)? Hey its good they are checking their helmets, I guess.

You know those goofy looking half helmets aren't much, but at least there's some protection. But as soon as it gets nice and hot out (around here anyway), and they get together in a pack, off come the helmets and on go the do-rags!

Helmets and other gear are mostly for people who cannot ride. If you keep your bike upright there is little need for anything more than eye protection and shoes.

If you don't know how to blink you shouldn't be operating a motor vehicle at all, so why do you need eye protection?!?

Good point, all you really need are shoes. Actually just a shoe.

Shoes?
Sandals are the only way to go!
They're like half helmets for your feet!
