She grew up riding motorcycles on the farm, so she's got lots of miles under her ass. Before she went to nursing school and worked with head injury and rehab patients during her clinical rotations, it was always the plan that when I got mine she'd get one too. She's just finally returning to our original vision. And she's got just the cutest pink helmet.

If you guys aren't wearing full face helmets, you're idiots. This from a man who skateboards at 45 years of age.
