What was the top selling cycling calendar? This 2016 Bicycle Bliss Calendar, also from Amber Lotus.

Before I get started: It’s a long story, but I lost my bike helmet. I’m seeking recommendations. My strong preference is for a well ventilated “road” style helmet. No skater or urban helmets, no mountain bike helmets. I’m looking at around the $100 price range, so helmets like the Giro Atmos or Specialized Propero.

Disclosure: I might get a few pennies to help me celebrate the New Year if you buy this calendar through Amazon. You can see top selling books at my online cycling book shop. The selection is updated every week, and they’re worth browsing if I don’t say so myself. You might notice that I’ve removed the option to purchase through Powell’s Bookstore and added Bookshop Santa Cruz. 36% of Cyclelicious readers view these pages from California, and about 30% of those California followers are within reasonable cycling distance of Bookshop Santa Cruz.
