• Last week's Cycling Weekly reports on an epidemiological study from New Zealand which examines the impact (no pun intended) of helmet compulsion in NZ. I haven't seen the study yet and the CW article doesn't seem to be on-line. From what they report, the results were even more dramatically negative than in Australia. Anyway, I'm sure it'll be much-discussed soon. NB as ever, helmet compulsion is not the same topic as your personal choice of whether to wear one or not, although they are of course related.
