It must feel great to be ridding like you were a kid again, nothing on your head screaming down your street or hill with not a care in the world for safety. This is the
lightest helmet in the world and yes you will feel like a kid again.
Specialized has something called, Kevlar Intermatrix, "patented uni-directional Kevlar fiber internal reinforcement holds everything together. This InnerMatrix with carbon bridges effectively supports the dual density foam, allows wide-open airflow to vents, and since it's bulletproof Kevlar, decreases overall weight without compromising strength." Whatever, it looks cool, makes it lightweight and changes how you once thought of helmets.
Now go be a kid again!

Golf has some good aspects, mostly being outside and for the
pro's they at least walk from tee to tee. For most golf is about getting away and sitting in a golf Kart. One thing that Europe has on the U.S. is they let you do things a little different, like allowing you to ride instead of take a kart. Along come the Golf Caddy, attach to bike and pull your clubs around the course. This is great and so simple. The site is in German so, but the images speak for themselves.
