WOAH NELLY!

The day is on fire here folks – it’s beautiful and sunny in Vegas and I have a to do list that is as long as my arm.

So no time for the dilly to the dally. Excuse the tap tap tap, this is how long it takes to eat a toastie at your desk.

That said – I promised you some love, some laughs and some graphs.

I believe this is a glass half full kind of day. Consider the following comparison – perhaps not strictly a graph but what does one do in five minutes on the way to the tea room?

This is a representation so far of our response rate! We are at a whopping NINETEEN yes’es to ZERO no’s. People who like helmets like people who like helmets who like football too. The stats don’t lie.

And well, though I’ve had to promise some pretty dodgy things to friends in the past 15 hours to get to these WHOPPING STATS, I believe that almost all of them know that I am joking and that they will just give me their money in return for my platonic love, affection and some totally nerdy graphs.

Nothing says radness like good friends.

But then again, neither does cold hard cash.

So let’s mark our first paid up and proud sponsor: Ben You Made My Day.

Anyone else gunning for my BSB or Paypal account, just message me at helmetsarehot at gmail dot com.

Now Ben, is here for the cheer not because he knows Emma, because he doesn’t know Emma at all, but because the poor guy was working late last night and who doesn’t need a cycling related distraction when you’re still at the office in the wee dark hours of the Brisbane night? Ben’s got a soft spot for the Tour de France and for his neice Sienna who is rocking it hard on her first pink bike. Because Sienna is a child, and I fear that the internet is full of creeps, we have elected not to share a photo of Sienna. But rather this marker of her radness. Which is all encompassing goodness.

I remember my first bike; it had a banana seat, chopper bars and streamers on the handlebars. Those were the days.

Sienna is currently big time into pink, I just wanted to let her know that some things you never grow out of and – if she’s lucky, she’ll have camouflage pink grips to blend with her hot pink light hot pink jacket hot pink heart in the future which is big as a ball, high as a kite, and sweet as a Sugarspoke in the morning.
