If you don't, that's OK, it just seems like a really silly thing to get all hung up over when someone else thinks is overkill, just like I'm sure you think body armor probably is. Unless, of course, you fall a lot for some reason, like riding in icy weather, pushing your limits a lot, etc. But hey, your choice, bud. I just don't think I need a helmet for riding a bike anymore than I need one for walking.
Yes, We are all invincible... Until we are not, then we become statistics... That others won't even consider because they are better, and it won't happen to them... Good... Nay, not even conceivable that a helmet could help out in a crash even to excellent riders...
