Please note that your statements above, about the nasty "leftover

well to running. Yet I'll bet you'd hate hearing that all runners should
always wear a helmet when running.

 Frank, you deo not run, do you?

On occasion I do, usually with some reluctance.

The entire human skeletal structure is designed by God specifically for running.

If God had meant for us to be running, he would not have given us bicycles.  ;-)

While you CAN fall completely out of control it is not the case with any experienced runners or even speed walkers.

It's also not the case for me on a bicycle. Only three moving on-road falls in over 50 years of riding. Zero head injuries. Most avid cyclists never ever hit their head, and certainly never hard enough to induce brain injury.
So much fear mongering!
