I used to ride my horse and bicycle all over Hell's half acre all the time wearing a baseball cap. Never gave it a thought. Today in some places kids are required by law to wear helmets while on their bikes. On state lands (and most of the riding is on state lands in Florida) kids are required to wear a helmet.
I must say that I am happy I was a kid when I was a kid. Those were simpler times and the risk were less. The problem I think is simply too many people.
Truman- how about some statistics on injuriy severity and helmet use?
