depends go to any auto shop or motorcycle shop/dealership. usually on the back of the helmet on the bottom, there is a little emblem that say DOT or SNELL. that means its approved. if its not there check tags on inside. dont know about a 3/4 helmet, its probably cheaper, but you can get a decent full face with shield for like 200. thats what i use to ride my bike. a few brands that are reasonably cheap and good are HJC and scorpion. they both should be DOT or snell approved too.

It's more like traffic knitting. I'm in but it looks like it will be a very small track guys.

park by a river very descriptive lol haha, but yea, streets of woodfield is this big shopping area where a lot of cars always go and its in schaumburg, and strats is a restaurant of north ave in elmhurst, in that area i believe

but yea i posted a poll so we can decide where the majority want to meet next time, i will start off by saying i love streets since lots of people always show up and right next to highway, and i love highway lol
