There are Lycra covers that don't limit airflow too much. -- Thanks for all the replies. If anyone is interested I think I have found what I was looking for. My wife went to a beauty supply store and came home with two hair nets for $1.35. The material is like nylon stockings. People (including men) wear them over their hair. Anyhow, it was a bit difficult to stretch them over the helmet but once they were on they were very tight and let in a lot of air. The holes are maybe 2 mm wide. Tom |

Helmet Cover
Can't think of a suitable cover but there are plenty of helmets with mesh in
the holes to keep the bugs out. "Paul Hobson" wrote in message ... wrote: On a training ride Saturday I got stung (twice) by a bee getting caught in my helmet.
