bike helmets are pretty pointless, i could be wrong, they may keep your head dry.
For any proper protection against moving cars you'd be better off with a motorbike helmet.
Some of you may disagree, but a bike a helmet just seems to be a clumsy scrap of synthetic stuff perched on my head, when i did try one , a long time ago.
You'd still face plant, chin plant the same with /without a helmet and break your face to bits.
This justifies itself enough for me to not wear one.
