  • Must provide own helmet to race

    Well, that's disappointing, but I guess with Covid going around...

    Seems this requirement actually started before COVID. And for some of us, since they don't accept motorcycle helmets, you have to buy a helmet just to participate in these events.

    Not real sure why motorcycle helmets are not legal but I guess no one expects you to hit your head when you crash your bike!

        I believe it's because the material on the interior of the helmet is not fireproof on motorcycle helmets.

          Never thought of that - no one would want to be around when my hair was on fire!

            I don't really have to worry about that.

                That's what I was thinking too.
