The return of the Ballista!

Anyone who knows me, knows I’m a fan of the aero road helmet. Or anything aero for that matter! According to all the testing, an aero road helmet gives a very cost effective watt saving at speed. I’ll take that, but I also love that it keeps my head a little warmer on those chilly…
