Personally I'd still use a helmet in winter 'cause it's a handy plac
to
put lights :-) Summer I'd leave the lid behind and wear a sun hat.

Dr Robinson is a well known anti-helmet law campaigner and does som
pretty good research. However, I'm concerned that her pre-determine
conclusions undermines her work.
Euan had better make sure he falls off and hits his head in winte
