Last month I fell off my horse and was knocked out
briefly (yes I was wearing a helmet).
This reminds me of something at a ride this weekend. I was taking start numbers and mentioned to my friend that I noticed one of our riders had gone back to get his helmet. He is not a junior any more and the rules don't require him to wear it but I jokingly said don't tell him, cause it is a good habit to get into.
A couple of teenaged girls were standing there and one of them said "helmets are really overrated." I asked her how many people she knew who had died because they weren't wearing one and she said none. I told her I knew two and helmets were not overrated.
Later on a friend of mine told me this..........The only people who need helmets are those who have brains........mb
