Having had many close call encounters both on a bicycle and in a car, I am NOT afraid to look like a Xmas tree while biking.

Having met someone with a hole in his head and his speech impaired because, the one day his car was in the garage, he rode to work on his bike without a helmet, I don’t care much about that kind of wind in my hair anymore…

I have also had people die from head concussions by rollerblading without a helmet.

On the top picture, notice the lights and reflectors (all around) on the helmet.
With LED lights there is no excuse…

A friend recently wrote me:
I have had 13 friends and family of friends hit by cars, and one who hit someone who rode their bike directly into her path while driving,  3 died, all not wearing helmets. My friends who were wearing helmets all survived.
I have had close calls as well and one fall when my helmet did its job.
