It actually worries me a lot when I see cyclists in my town without helmets on. This area is extremely unfriendly to bikes of any kind; drivers intentionally try to clip you to scare you.
No helmets and riding against traffic are the two things that bother me the most. I could care less what they are wearing or what kind of bike they ride. But to those people I want to shout at them or shake some sense into them. At the very least I feel my apparel (usually bike shorts and a bright colored tshirt or tank top) makes me visible and my helmet keeps me safe(r).
