C'MON SHEEPLE!!! WEAR YOUR HELMETS!!!!
maybe due to previous experiences, I am "scared" to ride without a helmet, even though it is just a 1km to my neighborhood 7-11. I wear seat belts in my car even though it's only a 1-km trip and I think I know my shower head pretty well (hi Bob) that I don't have to worry being hit by unknown objects. I know helmets are not meant to protect me under all circumstances but the fact that it offers a cushion make me feel safer.
