I think the point Bad Seed was making is that you can be as skilled as you like, but that doesn't mean you won't fuck up. I wore a helmet when I was new on the roads. I don't any more, but I'm convinced it saved me from concussion or worse at least once.
Having said that, I hate the way they feel and the way they look and the fact that some drivers seem to think it's the cyclist's fault if they sustain grievous injury simply through not wearing a lid.
