Is it generally sweaty and smelly at the end of a day in the bike park? Mine is. My TLD is getting pretty rancid and will be replaced in the off season. I can't think anyone in their right mind would covet a helmet that smells like some dude's sweaty head. I no longer tenderly clean the liner or examine my helmet for scratches and chips. Hopefully it will show up somewhere like in a lost and found.
It was nearly brand new. Still hasn't been returned to lost and found or anywhere else in the area. I guess someone figures it's better to get a free helmet that probably doesn't fit (x-small) than to help a fellow rider out. But hopefully I'm wrong and it will show up at lost and found today.
Here'a a karma story in case the person who found it is reading. I found a wallet when I was a teenager and decided to keep it. It had ID in it, and it belonged to Donna Trewenack. I kept if for the pittance of $6 that was in it and the ID that I sold to a friend for $20 to use as fake ID to get into pubs when we were 17. It contained many pieces of ID that would have been a total pain in the ass for poor Donna to replace. A few months later, I lost my own wallet on a bus and it contained about $100. My dad suggested he phone the transit lost and found, so he grabbed the phone book and opened it up to what was around "T" for Transit. It opened directly on the first try to the page that had Trewenack at the top of the page (each page had an index name in bold at the top that was the first name listed on that page). I almost barfed and fainted. I don't typically believe in voodoo stuff, but the combined odds of that name even being the one that would be the index name, along with actually opening directly to that page, at the moment my dad was trying to retrieve my own lost wallet, is all to much for me to believe I wasn't being sent a message. So in the years since I have gone way out of my way to return things I have found, including a wallet in Whistler Village, so hopefully my karma is now in the black and I get my helmet back from someone who want's to keep theirs in the black as well.
