Some Oliver bait- what harm can wearing a helmet do?
Not in the sense of enforced helmet wearing as in Australia with the concomitant drop in bicycle usage.
I take Tricity's point about cars giving less room to cyclists wearing a helmet on board also.
My initial question also assumes that the helmet is worn correctly- not as VV says like a beret.
EDIT: I am perfectly willing to admit that when I hit the deck this year the helmet that I was wearing did nothing.
