The Future of Cycling... Helmets.

I am not sure I dig the "ant-head" shaped helmets that are likely the best, but you have to check this out.  It's a new helmet design sure to appeal to... er, some!


Enjoy!

Cool Trails

The Broadway Boogie is a pure thrill ride. Speed comes naturally on this trail. It also connects to the Bear Creek and Boulder Creek trails so boredom never ensues. The Boulder Creek trail is a workout on the way up. This path ends at Fourmile Canyon Drive which is also a workout on the way up. But hey, no pedaling is needed on the way down. I broke the sound barrier on my way back into Boulder.
