Best place to try on helmets in New England?

The NEHMA group seems to be a ghost town, so I'll drop this here...
Looking for the best place to try on a bunch of different helmets.
Best place =
- Multiple brands and styles (Street focused)
- full range of sizes
- Knowledgeable staff
- Within a reasonable distance (2 hours =/- from Portland ME.)
Am I looking for a unicorn? All recommendations welcome!

I think you're looking for a unicorn.
Most dealers carry one, or two, brands at most, and inventory levels are typically kept low.
I think you'll have to try several dealers.

To realize the value of nine months:
Ask a mother who gave birth to a stillborn.

If I was in CA, I'd go to Chaparral...

Cycle Gear at the Mall of NH in Manchester has a decent selection. You can go to their web site and see what they have in store before you make the trip.
