Anyone know a good helmet shop in the Boston area?

Hey all, I'm looking for a recommendations for a good shop that sells safety equipment (helmet, gloves, hans, etc). Ideally, it wouldn't be more than 30 miles outside of Boston. Any advice would be most appreciated.


Regards,

-Alex

I've bought a helmet at www.hmsmotorsport.com
They seemed fine FWIW. THey sell Bell, Arai, and a couple others.

There is also Turner Motorsports in Amesbury, really good stuff.

Even though hmsmotorsport seems to focus on BMW's, they have a very good helmet selection and have other DE essentials. I attended a PCA meeting there last spring and they offered a discount to PCA members - although I can't remember whether it was for that day or for all time!

Thanks for all the input guys. Went to HMS today and got exactly what I needed. PCA discount didn't hurt either.
