I would be glad to send my cracked helmet to you (no postage refund needed) if it convinces kids to be safe! My recent crash was not nearly as dramatic as many described above but was still potentially dangerous.

I wrote briefly about it in a recent thread: ( I was riding into a seasonally closed rest area near where I live, one where the wire which holds warning signs has been sagging on the ground and where I have been riding over the wire where it is on the ground. You know what's coming---yup, I wasn't paying attention to my turning radius and hit the wire where it was about 10 inches off the ground---instant endo, cracked helmet, road rash on knees and head, and stiff neck, but otherwise OK. The price of stupidity and lack of attention! )

So pm your address to me.
