I went to a wedding there last year or the year before.

Our cabin is in Arendtsville not far from the Apple Fest.

No sexting, just late night random txting.

for MB??

Get one that is comfortable and well ventilated.

prices will range mostly in accordance with weight/ventilation (more ventilation more expensive to keep rigidity)

Mostly you want it comfortable. All bike helmets will feel light after wearing motorcycle helmets so to start make sure its well fitting and not going to be a bother.

You also have to know what well fitting is.

MTB specific helemts will provide more protection for the base of your skull and other areas. But that adds some weight. Ive found that weight isnt really an issue until I do over 3 hours of riding (road biking). I would also recommend going to a bigger store that has all the major helmet brands (Bell, Giro) and trying a bunch on. Then buy online from one of the large cycling distributors (bikenashbar or similiar). A lot of times you can get last years model for way cheaper. I would also stay away from darker colors (black) for obvious reasons but that may not be much of an issue mountain biking as it is road biking. Finally, I like to do my gear shopping in the winter (after October). Places run a lot more sales then.

On a side note. I have had a Bell Helmet save my brain before. What was really nice is I sent the helmet back to them and they sent a new one for free. "Saved by the Bell Program". I used to sell bikes/gear so if you have any other questions or need some more websites/brick and mortar stores to check out let me know.

I bought my bike from bike doctor many years ago. I'll most likely look there for gear. Alberto pointed out that my life is goin to suck with my current plastic pedals. Is there anything I should look for pedal wise strictly for offload use.

Zain. Not sure about this weekend but I need to start building up my gear so when it does happen I'm not scrambling to get things together.
