If you ride a bike, please wear a helmet! It doesn't matter if you don't think they look cool... wearing a helmet is cool. Seriously.
I usually wear one, but of course one of the few times I wasn't, I got it. It wasn't my fault.
I am extremely lucky, but regardless, I had an overnight stay in the hospital and a nice set of stitches. My first – and hopefully last, on both accounts.
You can find a helmet for less than $20 here. All helmets are certified by the same standards, so the price has nothing to do with how the helmet will protect you. A $20 helmet will protect your head just the same as a $200 helmet. There is no excuse not to have one!
Be safe!
