goggle tans are the shit, and girls with goggle tans steal my heart like yogi steals picanic baskets, but more so because their girls and I like sex.

I got a giro Flint SC, best helmet I've ever had. Supersweet for crashing through the woods and just plowing through crap without eating branches/your knees.

For whatever reason Giro discontinued them last season and no shops have them anymore, It was tough finding it in a medium from any online retailers so I had to pick mine up off ebay for 120$, it's the only piece of gear I paid retail for this season and I didn't have much choice so I don't feel too bad about it. Plus, why skimp on something like a helmet.

First you get the goggles, then you get the goggle tan, then you get the women.

i dont usually get too good of goggle tans in the winter, but in the summer, i get awesome tans from DH bikin with armor on. pretty funny lookin, cause my arms will be all patchy, and my hands are lighter from wearing gloves.

yeah they're pretty damn hot.

when I do get one, it means I've been doing a LOT of skiing, because I'm super pale and don't tan very easily. nonetheless, i had one for my grad photos, even though i tried my best to avoid getting one.
