I see people ride their bikes without helmets in traffic all of the time and it just makes me shudder. I fell once on a wooden bridge (hard enough to knock my brake and gear levers out of adjustment and bend my rear derallieur) and if it weren't for my brain protector, I would've really hurt my precious noggin!! Please please please everyone wear your helmets, no matter how "funny" you think you look.

Shee-yi - it!
Another helmet-disciple here.
Despite 1000's of wind-in-the-hair miles touring and messengering in the 70's and early 80's. Started wearing one several years ago and had a crash last year that would have ended up much worse if it wasn't for the helmet.
All you need is love...la-dee-da-dee-da...all you need is love!

Just think how "funny" you'd look with your head shaved and bandaged.

I saw a pic of the helmet today while I was eating lunch. It certainly looks live it was run OVER.
