I've thought extensively about this over the past couple of weeks as I am a frequent rider and ride generally without a helmet.
I've had friends die on bikes, I've seen the tragedies on tv, and still I have been unabashed at my no helmet wearing preference. With the impending marriage I have decided helmet riding is a must and I am thinking I am going to sell my road bike. I might buckle one day soon and buy a bike as I have been riding since a child, but if I do I will probably buy a piece of crap as to use it strictly for transport to and from work.
