thank god I live in the netherlands, we really don't need helmets here because we have SAFE cycle paths. (besides if you wear a helmet in the netherlands people laugh at you: NICE HELMET!!!!!)

I just got a 50 dollar ticket for not wearing a helmet.. Why is that a fucking law?

Up until now i never had a helmet. Never died(obvious), never hit my head, and have been cycling for 15 years. Also have fallen multiple times.
Now I got a helmet. I still feel like it's a "fetch" thing. At list at my lvl. I do 80-100km rides 90% on the road(tarmac/gravel) with my MTB. The one plus for now it is that in a full sunny day, i don't get headaches because it protects me from the sun. Also on rainy days it keeps me warm. (Met Cosmo 2011-silver) Helmets are overrated.

Don't wear a helmet? Yeah, go right ahead and do that. Hope it works out for you.

Dont forget your helmet and good ride :)
Mountain Bike for ever !!
I went into a bike shop last week and tryed a display helmet on. A few seconds later the owner of the store came over and said "Would you mind not trying the helmets on please" When i explained i needed to see if it was okay before i bought it i just got from the guy "Well take it off, OKAY?!" -_-

Most cyclists suffer head injury rates no greater than that of the general population and helmets are not made for impacts involving motor vehicles.
Use your head, don't rely on a helmet. Ride safe and look out for others who are not. Be active in preventing irresponsible road use. Don't just wear a helmet, prevent collisions from occurring.
The 85% reduction applied to children who had a simple fall off a bike and were under 5 years old. Don't expect the same result in different situations.
