Re: [RC] Helmets . . . Again - Lif Strand

I think most of the problem I have with the arguments about the need to wear helmets is that they are all fear based. I think it all comes down to the fact that people who don't wear helmets when they ride have nothing they fear.

The way I see it, people should do what they want to do because they want to do it - living a live because you're afraid not to do something is not good enough for me. If someone wants to wear a helmet, then wear a helmet. If you feel that the risk is enough that wearing a helmet is justified, wear one. But please, don't be telling others to wear helmets, using fear arguments as justification for that point of view.
