Very interesting read.

The standard for road racing is the Snell SA2005 (SA for special application instead of M for motocycle). The SA helmets are generally more expensive than M helmets--smaller market?--but that's what you need for road racing. Think about when it comes time to buy a new helmet. My SA2000 is about five years old so next season I'll get a new one. Probably a SA 2005 because it will be cheaper than a SA2010, but I'll have to see how the standards change.
