I note that Melbourne and Sydney are in the most livable cities list,
but not so good for bicycles :-(
Then there's Frank's favorite bit. *"Fear!" *The rest is right up the

At least he acknowledges that cars are the biggest threat to pedestrians

I find the term AHZ to be telling. Zealotry is something that flies in
the face of evidence, not a calm attitude that explains clear
statistics. Zealotry is enthusiasm for a device disproportionate to
its efficacy.
Zealotry in the bike helmet world is really best expressed by what I
call the "concern troll". It's not about cycling, but about being smug.
