Just a reminder that a DOT helmet is the law in California and the
ticket for not wearing one will cost you a LOT more than a high
quality legal DOT or even better a Snell helmet.
The Newport Beach and downtown Huntington Beach ride will need one
and if you want to have the
most fun you have ever had with your
clothes on you are definitely going to need one. LOL
Yes, I have very exciting news to be announced soon!
Please don't don't waste your money on those funny looking bicycle
helmets, skate helmet or a fake DOT as they are not going to let
you play with us.
I am seriously considering upgrading to a full face Snell helmet. Too
bad my old classic Simpson helmet rotted from old age.
I have my $19 MO ready to send in when I figure out which bike is
getting the Honda 50 so i can get my plates. It takes a while so
now is the time.
Baird can tell you how great it feels to be totally legal and not have to
worry about getting stopped with tickets and fines. Just smile and drive
on by......I am not really big on waving lol
Not wearing any helmet puts a ticket target like a bright neon sign
right on your back. Wearing the wrong helmet does the same in some
areas in CA.
PS: I hope none of you got hit too hard with tickets from the ride. I
am not too sure who all the 2nd motor officer pulled over.
Please post here or PM me if you don't want the info out there.
that's DOT helmets, and visible license plates. if you can add some lights and a mirror, even better, even if you have to tape them on. and definitely get at least an M1 or M2 permit (it's the same thing.)
Newport and HB are too cool to cruise through to let the man put us down.
TAKE BACK THE STREETS!
