I suspect that some think going all-black looks bada$$. I think they're missing the point. It's you that's bada$$, not your clothes.
FYI this helmet is great -- a premium lid that just happens to be on closeout at Revzilla right now. Since you've been down in a way that I (thankfully) have never experienced, you may have recalibrated your feelings about how much gear costs. This is a steal:

That helmet looks great! I am in total agreement on gear, I spent a good deal on my helmet before, but now going with a high-viz one is my top priority (aside from healing and fixing the bike!)
Thanks for the well wishes.
PS - where did you get the solas tape?
