• So the story goes:

    Chap on a bike has quite a full on crash, including a head impact, whilst not wearing a helmet, survives with a "cut to the top of the head" and concludes he needs a helmet.

    I am confuse.

  • I'm confused too though apparently that's to be expected after hitting my head and hardly sleeping.

    On one hand I've got ambulance and hospital staff telling me all these anecdotal horror stories about the injuries they see happen to cyclists without helmets and then I've got counter arguments about the other forces that wearing a helmet introduces.

    Only thing I know for sure is not to ride so fast after it's been raining.

  • If there is ever a next time that you go to A&E ask them if they ever see traumatic head injuries from any other activity. Ask them what the activities are, and then ask if people should wear helmets whilst doing those things.
