This is also the time when we start looking at new bike gear, and no piece of equipment is more important than a bike helmet. When worn properly, the best bike helmets can reduce serious head injuries by 60 percent. Not just in that I wear one every time I throw my leg over a bike, but I also love variety. I love matching different helmets with different kits and outfits (after all, style goes a long way on the bike), and as a road cyclist, mountain biker, and everyday around-the-town rider, I usually have anywhere from five to 10 helmets at home. Don't forget to check out the rest of our outdoor buying guides, including the Best Electric Bikes, the Best Scooters, and the Best Day-Hiking Backpacks.
