Will anyone be wearing one on a ride out ?
A peanut balanced on the top of your head looks cr#p IMO,  i'll take the risk, never wore one BITD.
 health and safety is a bit OTT  nowadays.
wouldn't be surprised if they make it law soon anyway, then i shall go and get a 1980's race lid.

personally I wouldn't wear a helmet if I was just out for a 'bike ride'... but I don't drink and ride either  :buck2:

If I'm riding a park then I always wear a pi$$pot helmet ... like Gra said ... rock a cap if you want a peak  :daumenhoch:

I wear a crash hat riding dirt, ramps, out on a mtb/road bike.  I dont wear one on a social/pub type ride though.  I never really worry about what i look like in a crash helmet either.

I was very lucky 20 years ago when I came off my bike at Bowes Lyon concrete park in stevenage. I had a full face helmet in the car but its not cool to wear helmets is it... quite a few stitches in my bonce + concussion. Nowadays I always wear a helmet on my road bike and also when I go out with my 5 year old but if I pop out on my own on a bmx to the shops then I tend not to. I guess I still haven't learnt my lesson.

Who says helmets don't look cool?  :teef:
