I need a helmet $100 or less that doesn't look like a giant mushroom on my head. Right now I have a super cheap giro and it looks big and goofy. I know helmets are made for safety, but are there any that look good while protecting my head? Something low profile
Answer
Go into a local bike shop (avoid wal-mart and other stores that don't specialize in bikes) and take a look at a few. Helmets have come a long way since those old Bell helmets from the 90's. if this doesn't work out Trek and Specialized make some very nice looking ones for both road and mt.biking, and yes they r under $100

cheap options to cycling?
frenchie
-Would underarmour work instead of buying expensive "official" shirts?
-Giro helmet for $40 worth it?
-How to get cheap sunglasses that look good for under $20?
-Orbea a good brand for first race/cross country bike?
-What style would a long distance/race bike be considered? (road, racing, tour, audax)
-How much does a cycling cost? Do I have to renew it? How much is that?
Thanks for everything. :)
The last question is a "cycling license". And what I mean by "what style of bike" is what would a long distance/race bike be considered. I only get $150 every two weeks and want this bike to count. I want to be able to do MORE long distance with friends but also be able to do a FEW races with it. Sorry about that.

Underarmour will work just fine for your jersey, in fact that's what I usually wear because I find them to be more comfortable and cooler for the hot ca sun. If you want to go distance though, invest the money in a good chamois and your be happy you did.
Giro makes very good helmets, price doesnt really say much because they make a wide range and if you look online you can find last years higher end models at this years prices so it could be a very good helmet.. or it could just be a cheap current model. Either way, comfort and fit are way more important than style or price. It is, after all, your head on the line with this one.
I usually hit up sporting goods stores like Sports Authority and such and they usually have a rack full of $20 shades that will have one or two pair that I like.
Orbea is a very good first bike, though they are a bit pricey. I recently rode their new Onix which is a bottom-end carbon frame and it was awesome... was a $3000 bike though. Cheap for carbon but not cheap for starting out. Are you getting a deal on a bike or do you just favor Orbea?
Road bike... At least for starters. Long distance and race bike is almost an oxymoron at any reasonable price level since you usually want your race bike super stiff for maximum power transfer and handling as opposed to comfort. A long distance bike is going to be a bit more supple and forgiving for those 100 mile days. I'd recommend you start out with a frame geared more toward distance than all out race for now, as you progress and get more serious about the racing side of it you can build up a true race rig.
No clue on the cost or renewal, sorry.
