The speed of your crash was well above the supposed point at which a helmets benefits are limited...
I respect Mr Schick's opinions and usually agree with them. However I think the message is being confused. IMHO people should be encouraged to wear helmets for the reason that they do help in some circumstances. A lot of time and money has been ploughed into providing empirical proof of their effectiveness either way and all that happens is cyclists argue with each other. What a waste of time.
