New helmet

This is my new helmet. Went for a short but hilly cycle wearing my new helmet. Pleased with it. My old one was annoying as the straps never stayed in the right place, always needing adjusted. The clips under the ears also kept slipping and the helmet used to leave red marks at the side of my forehead, so replacement was long overdue. Only disappointment being it didn't make the hills any easier! Oh well you can't get everything.

Update on the brushless squirrel. Asked on Tuesday about it and was told they are just like humans and can get fungal infections or eczema. Saw it this afternoon and it looks like the hair is starting to grow back a little at its base. So hopefully it won't be brushless much longer.

Trying to decide what to pack in the panniers for our 3 day cycle starting Saturday. Apart from camping equipment I seem to need as much stuff for 3 days as I do for 2 weeks in the summer!
