What he said, basically, was:
the roads are dangerous out there, I don't live here anymore, perhaps cyclists should wear helmets, they should definitely not wear headphones, there should be some give and take between road users.
everyone is focussing on "brad sez wear a helmet" when really he's saying "the roads are dangerous, don't make them more dangerous by being a bellend".
(plus: helmets won't save you when you interface with a vehicle, they may help if you interface with the floor/something else)
