I've noticed that there is generally a division between those who question the efficacy of helmets who tend to use their real names and those who are staunch believers in helmets who go by pseudonyms like Ozark and Sorni and Strange Quark. I wonder why that would be? They fell off their bike without a helmet, and can't remember who the **** they are. I never use a helmet but not for the reasons most might think. I wear a baseball cap with the bill to keep the sun from coming over the top of my sunglasses into my eyes. Doesn't that make your neck hurt. At least get a cycling cap with the small bill. If I could find a helmet with a sun visor on the front I might consider wearing one. Perhaps 60% of the helmets on the market come with one. 80% of the rest can have one fitted and almost all can be worn over a billed cycling cap. None of this means I think you need a helmet, just that you don't need any excuse (much less this one). Ron Mid day sun hurts my eyes, especially the light that comes around the corners of my sunglasses, and has sometimes interfered with my ability to see where I am going. There's a different point of view for you. Bill (real name) Baka |
