Its funny i should read this by chance today. I have been riding bikes for 15 years and i have NEVER worn a helmet before. Never had an accident (and the only time i ever came off my bike was when i was stood still but had my trouser leg caught in the front chain run.
Last week i baught some new batteries for my e'bike and yesterday realised that the batteries would make my ebike capable of 30+MPH. I sat and thought to myself, perhaps its time to think about an helmet as if anything did ever happen at 30+MPH, id be sure to need one when i landed. I dont even really know why i have never wanted to wear one which is funny, perhaps its as i hate wearing hats or anything else on my head for that matter. Well, you know what they say, the best time to change is before its too late. I think after reading this ill go pick one up from the bike shop at the weekend. I dont think i fancy the thought of big stone holes in my scalp :S
