What kind of bicycle helmet should I buy?

I'm not really sure how much money my dad wants to spend on one. Probably no more than $50, but I'm not sure.

I tried on an adult helmet that we already had, (I'm guessing a men's one) but it was too big!

I think it'd be nice to get a helmet that has a little hole for a pony-tail, but it's not the end of the world if it doesn't have one.

I live in Omaha, NE, so we have quite a few bike shops, as well as a bunch of sporting goods stores.

I know we don't want to buy one off the internet. Should I go to a bike or sporting goods store, or just go to target or wal-mart?

Is there really a big difference between $25 helmets and $50 helmets?

OH and if an adult helmet was too big, should I get a youth size? Or a women's size? Or what?

I don't want it to be super ugly either. I'm a 16 year old girl so if it looks really ugly I probably won't have any motivation to wear it.
OH and I ride about 6 miles on a paved trail each time I ride, and I go about 4-5 days a week.



Answer
Any helmet you like and fits will work. They are all tested and approved meeting govt. standards. At 16 you will need an adult helmet. Some models offer universal fit, 1 size fits all. I don't like those. Find a model you like with s,m,l sizing. An exact fit is achieved by using the extra pads that come with most helmets. You should be able to find quite a few under $50.

Do you need a drivers license to operate a motor bike on florida hyways 50cc & under?

50cc & under.


Answer
No more than 50cc`s AND NO MORE THAN 30mph!!!


Mopeds/Scooters: If a motor vehicle is 50 cc or less, 2 brake horsepower or less, and can not exceed more than 30 mph on level ground, no helmet is required for the operator. The operator must be at least 16 years old and hold at least a regular operator driver license (Class E) or âMotorcycle Onlyâ license.) Passengers under 16 must wear a helmet.

3. Eye Protection: All persons who operate motorcycles (motorcycle = 51cc or more) must wear eye protection.

Most scooters can travel up to 40 MPH and exceed 2 bhp, so I would assume that the helmet requirements for motorcycles apply, but I am not a lawyer.

Is insurance required for motorcycles?

Insurance is not required to register motorcycles as with four-wheel motor vehicles (S. 627.733, F.S.). HOWEVER, if a motorcycle operator is charged in a crash with injuries, then the owner or owner/operator is financially responsible for bodily injuries and property damage to others. If no liability coverage was in effect, then bodily injury/property damage liability insurance must be purchased and kept for three years to avoid Financial Responsibility (license and tag/registration) suspension or to reinstate license, tag/registration after suspension. Chapter 324, F.S.

* Interstate highways cannot be used by human-powered vehicles or vehicles under 5 bhp (which means most 50cc scooters), and you must be able to maintain at least 40 MPH on an interstate to avoid a moving violation.

* If riding at less than the normal speed of traffic, you must ride as close to the right edge of the roadway or curb as possible except when making a left turn or the conditions do not allow you to do so; you are not allowed to use a bike or pedestrian lane. Otherwise you are bound to the same ârules of the roadâ as cars or full-size motorcycles.

* Persons under 16 may not operate a motorcycle or moped/scooter over 150cc or rent any motorcycle or moped.

* You cannot ride between traffic lanes (some states, i.e., California, allow this. Florida does not).
