In fact, I'll bet that when driving to or from the start of a ride, all
the helmet wearing cyclists in this group leave their helmets somewhere
in the car instead of wearing them. Because they're inside the car,
where far more brain injuries occur, they refuse to take advantage of
the added protection they so avidly proclaim!

But why do you nag at people not to wear helmets. Nobody is going to
change their minds about it.

<sigh> I have never told anyone "not to wear helmets."

 <LOL> You argue that they serve no purpose. That's essentually the
same thing. It's dishonest for you claim otherwise.

:-) This really is funny! Mr. Tricycle Rider is mad because I'm presenting evidence that bike helmets are not normally needed.
Mr. Tricycle Rider has proudly said he never wears a helmet.
Mr. Tricycle Rider is compelled to argue with me even on issues on which we agree!
The man needs help.
