Helmet day: make checking your helmet a habit

Published
Dag van de Fietshelm: maak van je helm een vaste gewoonte

The short answer: A good habit starts with a helmet that fits well and is ready when you leave. Use this opportunity to check your helmet and make your daily routine easier.

Make setting off simple

Keep your helmet with your cycling equipment in a suitable, dry place. If it has lights, make charging part of your routine. This leaves less to find or organise just before departure.

Address discomfort

A helmet that pinches, slides or will not adjust properly needs attention. First check your size and the model-specific adjustment. An extra accessory will not solve a poor fit. Read how to choose the right helmet size.

Check together

Do you ride with children or other people? Check buckles and visibility together before setting off. Calmly discuss why you use a helmet.

A practical next step

Use the short helmet checklist and, if needed, compare a suitable new model. A helmet is protective equipment; continue to adapt your riding to traffic and conditions.
