What Are Your Helmet Preferences?

I will reiterate. If you wear eye glasses you should opt for an open face if you can. I couldn't get a full face that fit right on over my glasses.

A full face is much quieter if you have the wind in your face. On long rides I will always use a full face helmet. It's a bit tight getting your glasses through the opening but can be done. If you have a windscreen and not bothered by wind noise or use earplugs then a open feels less restrictive and gives you better movement.
