Frequently asked questions New bicycle helmet standards?

In Australia there was recently a change to to bicycle helmet standards as outlined in AS/NZS 2063:2008.

Basically, helmets complying to the 1996 version of the standard will soon become illegal to sell in Australia.

I want

Know an answer?


Answer burnett

I would buy an old helmet (or two if the right price) to use. I cannot imagine a better designed helmet without adding weight! If I were looking at making a change to cycling helmets it would be to upgrade the MINIMUM standard internal

    MP's bill to make cycle helmets compulsory for under-14s fails

    A Liberal Democrat MP has failed in her attempt to introduce a law that would have made it compulsory for children aged 13 years and below to wear helmets while cycling. The proposed legislation, officially the Cycles (Protective Headgear for Children) Bill 2010-11 will be shelved after it failed to receive a second reading last week.

    Annette Brooke, MP for Mid Dorset and Poole North, had presented her bill to the House of Commons in July, but the planned legislation seemed doomed from the start since it contradicted government policy, as well as that of her own party, not to introduce helmet compulsion.

    At the time, Ms Brookes said: "The law will not criminalise those cycling without helmets, instead requiring proof of purchase of a helmet within 28 days to avoid a fine.

    Sledding the Gap: Free Winter Fun in Vermont

    My group of friends waits patiently for the perfect day when all the elements combine for the annual impromptu Sled the Gap event. Usually someone gets the ball rolling when he or she spies what looks like a good forecast for the weekend, and then the email chain starts up in full force. Often we end up sledding when the sap starts running—both are magical rites of springtime in Vermont.

    The Gap refers to the Lincoln Gap, a pass that crosses over the spine of the Green Mountains from Lincoln to Warren. If you’ve ever driven over the Lincoln Gap, then you know it’s badass. The 20% grade is ridiculously steep, and at the top it pitches to a punishing 24% grade. If you’ve ever biked over the Lincoln Gap, pat yourself on the back. That is some serious cycling.

    Here’s why we choose the Gap as our sacred sledding spot: it’s closed in the winter. No plows or cars can go over, and the road is entirely blocked on both sides. In fact, we’re not the only ones onto this “secret spot.” Many people make the trek to sled down the wide track of road cutting through the woods. Some come to sled, others to backcountry ski, and some even to hike up on snowshoes to Mt. Abraham (accessible by the Long Trail which runs across the top of the pass). It’s a beautiful place to tramp around without any sounds or signs of traffic in the protected Green Mountain National Forest.
