BLACKSBURG — Forget the romantic photos of windswept babes with coifed hair motoring around Europe on curvaceous Vespas. Beginning in October, moped riders in Blacksburg have two choices: helmet hair or a $50 fine.
Technically, the new helmet law — which requires helmets and eye protection for riders and drivers of mopeds — went into effect Aug. 12, after Blacksburg Town Council approved it on a unanimous vote. But for the next few weeks, police will focus on education instead of punishment.

“It’s all about helping kids,” said one Blacksburg man as he prepared for the motorcycle ride on Saturday. He and approximately 100 bikers were participating in the Cruisin4Charities benefit for Medical Charities of Floyd County, an organization helping with medical expenses for families in Floyd County. The ride was one of three events of the day. A classic car show and concert featuring singer Rhonda Vincent, Nothin’ Fancy and local talents rounded out the day.
