do you have to wear one for most races nowadays?? think of it as training getting used to it

edit: i am sitting icing my eyesocket with frozen peas at work , and not lying in a hospital!
AUCH re eyesocket Hope the ice is doing it's trick... at least you are not in hospital!

I don't wear the helmet tight at all... but funnily enough, every helmet I have (3 now, including a point hat for TT-ing) makes a whopping great big dent in my forehead, which causes the discomfort, even though the helmet is fairly loose on my head... I am flummoxed as to why...

And yes, you wear one for races, that is why I actually do wear one with a certain regularity... But as of yet, you don't need one for TT's... But it is getting there.
