Union Flag/ St George Flag Design on Helemts

spen666

Does anyone know if it is possible to buy a cycling helmet with the colour design being either a Union Flag or St George's Cross?

Assuming that you're not boycotting Google for ideological reasons, the answer appears to be yes.

Maybe you could do a Critical Mass group-buy.

@ Ben - not sure what the connection with Critical Mass is - can you enlighten me

@Steppen - the helemts on google search do not seem to be road helemts ( I should have stated I was looking for a road helmet)

Maybe the EDL has a cycling sub forum?

Struggling with link I'm afraid, bit of a technophobe. Called Rudy Zuma, have a few in stock.

Chain Reaction Cycles have these Dawes Team GB helmets which should fit your criteria:

Racing Helmet - £17.99

BMX Helmet - £19.99

Sadly people associate the Union Jack with the more right wing aspects of our society. Almost that one should be ashamed to fly the flag. I've waved the British flag before, I didn't feel anymore evil.

In any case I wish you well with your search. Still, I'm curious, why?

From what I can find, I think these are the Kask distributors in the UK.

To protect himself from all the brickbats that are going to be aimed at him I think.

Some people seem to have a problem with it. Most Nations don't.

This is a tricky one. I can't work out if you are a racist moron, or a moron pretending to be racist and associating any interest in the country's flag as a sign of being a racist. One things for sure, you do come across as a moron.

I'd generally avoid wearing anything with a St Georges cross for fear of being thought of like I generally think of those that wear anything with a St George's cross. I don't particularly 'get' patriotism though <shrug>

I think you are curious because you want to know. That's usually the reason people are curious

That is a sad reflection on your narrow mindedness not on anyone else

If you think people won't judge you in the ways described with said St. George's attire, then you're being a little obtuse...

As I said, that is a reflection on their sad narrow mindedness, not a reflection on who I am.

I probably wouldn't wear large flag emblems on my clothes either, and there are certain brands of clothing I would not be seen dead in because of their association with certain tribal groups. We should however not give up the flag to the racist idiots, and make any one who feels pride in showing it be ashamed to do so. Patriotism does not have to be a dirty word, the Olympics has shown that.
