wow^
cycling in the netherlands is (i would imagine) safer than in london, both because of the infrastructure and the general attitude instilled in you from youth.
I believe that helmets should be a choice. i wouldn't judge either choice, just be glad they're cycling. (as jordan has pointed out)
I see this campaign, the Vote with you bike and the Scottish Pedal on Pariliament all as very strong indicators that the cycling issue needs to be considered more seriously by whichever candidate gains power in the election.
there's 30,000 people signed up on the Love London, Go Dutch petition and the others all have similar numbers. I can't see how wearing a helmet or not in the video could make a difference in whether or not the government takes our message seriously or not.
