This photo below is real and was worn up until last night by Ian''s co worker...
(i'll try and resize it..)
Amazingly, Barry escaped with only a scratch! Here's the email ian sent round to us today..(I'd post the photo of barry but i haven't asked his permission.)
'He was wearing the helmet when the helmet got run over.
We are not completely sure how he got out so well.
The pet theory right now is that the as the helmet was crushed - it spat
his head out (like a pip!!), and broke the chin strap as he did it.
But, and I say this with a high degree of confidence - Barry was wearing
the helmet when he got run over. He's a sensible guy. In fact, after he
heard about Cheryl smacking her head in her big off he went and bought a
new helmet because his previous one was a bit old. He has ridden with
the new helmet four times.
It just paid for itself.
He has been into the docs today to get his noodle X-Rayed - doesn't seem
to be any problems.
LUCK, Blind LUCK.'
Amazing hey..
