Once I read that it could be good to have 2 helmets.

One to deal with freezing/cold temperatures
One to deal with hot/warm temperatures

I guess that both types can be used for cooler temperatures.

What is you opinion about that ?

Do you have some suggestions of helmets, some models you like, or even different advices to share with us ?

I know that skiing and snowboarding helmets exist, whether they are up to your standards is another thing. As for hot weather most cycling helmets with something like those sweat wicking cloth tubes are good.

This, I use a normal helmet in summer and my skihelmet in winter (although I originally got it for skiing).
