i like how the guy is wearing a cross-country helmet! If i were to hit this i would probably where full face knee pads elbow pads, pads for everything, plus a chest-protector, a neck brace... the list goes on. now that i think about it, i don't think i would hit it anyways.

oh man, I was looking for that! Good find. It's on the post because it was the old STD. In 2012, it was redesigned. I was commenting that I had ridden both versions, to make the review more relevant. Thanks!
