for all you people who still ride a bike do u people actually wear helmets?
for me though a helmet saved me from a trip to the hospital....
if any of you see me in real life (which i don't think any of u have...) you can still see some of the scars on my face and hands... _________________ Mortified: To cause or to experience shame, humiliation, or wounded pride.

I don't like helmets that much, I mean I don't see how it could make a difference if I get hit by a speeding car, the more damged I get the more money I make out of lawsuites or something...
But I do wear a hat while riding my bike =D _________________ PM some funny pick-up lines please > |

Well, if you treasure your life over coolness, yes, of course! But the otherwise, then, you'd hate to do so! |

Definitely!! My dad has an accident once and he is lucky to have survived since he wore his helmet. If he does not, then maybe he will not be in my family now.
Hmm, do not want to wear helmet because it is uncool?? I think i will prioritise my safety. My head is just too important to be squashed when the unthinkable happens  _________________

when our bikes were actually in working order we'd wear helmets if we left our property, but otherwise, I wouldn't bother... I haven't rode a bike for a good 2 years or more now though... heh heh... _________________ streakhc.deviantart.com - I draw stuff there...

I experience them in highlands before when there is this one slope and it goes over 50 meter in length with incline of around 120 degree slope. I went down and it felt good. The wind is damn fast, but one thing: if you do not have a good control of your bike, you can lost it since it is so damn fast. One wrong move and you will crash. I was lucky that I survived my crash with my bike when I fell down from that slope and dragged for 10 meters before halting, but I got huge wound on my face, lower hand and upper thigh.
Sorry if a bit off-topic. Let's focus on the topic, shall we??  _________________

Wearing a helmet isn't cool. Around my neighbourhood we don't really need helmets since we don't have that many hills and slopes. While on the extreme bike trails, we don't go high speeds either.
My friends that have been hit by a car on bikes have walked away with broken limbs and sometimes unharmed but a messed up bike. I think these friends are lucky because the car wasn't going pull speed when they hit them. They also haven't hit their head either. |
