With that said...



My main complaint about bicycle helmets is they offer best protection on the first impact. Just because my grape bounced off the ground, it doesn't mean I'm done crashing and banging my head off the ground.



If you are eating your cheese helmet, I recommend 2 blocks all around....



Motorcycle helmets seem to have multiple impacts designed into them per crash, bicycle helmets have 1. Seat belts are designed to keep you in place through a multiple collision incident.



I'm fascinated this thread is 4 pages (at the time of my commenting) and hasn't been moved yet.



It is fascinating how worked up both sides get over a choice....
