Thanks guys

I'm enjoying it loads. Computer says I've put just over 150 km's on the few days I rode it. Having not ridden for a while, my legs are surprisingly fine but my crotch/butt area is killing me!

Interesting to know it's actually illegal with no helmet. I wonder if it's BC wide or just Vancouver (I see loads of people riding without helmets out in the Valley).

I usually do wear a lid, but didn't think to bring one with me bike shopping until one store told me I shouldn't go more than a few hundred yards without one.

Wearing a helmet has saved my head a couple of times. My last helmet is crushed, glad it wasn't my head.
Always wear a helmet, law or not. But yes, it's a BC wide law.

Congrats on the new bike, now we need a pool to bet on when the Madone gets bought
