The helmets are checked for cracks, evidence of bike crashes, trauma, and potential injury causing sharp pieces or frayed straps that would not protect the wearer&#8217;s head from head injury or traumatic brain injury.  The bike helmets are then specially marked for use the next day in this immensely popular D. C,. area multisport event.  If your helmet has been involved in a crash or other accident causing impact, remember: most helmets are only designed to absorb one impact.
