Hopefully this makes sense.
Hope you don't mind that I made the "if" the correct size.... for how it is being used. And... yes you made very good sense.

I don't think people consider safety all that much when selecting a sport, or sports equipment. My observation has been that adults with great hair... tend to ride bare-headed. Others tend to put something on their head. Most cyclists that wear kits [around here] seem to also wear a cycling helmet [and shoes].

I wear a helmet because my wife insists I do.... and I pick my conflicts carefully. She says I have to set a proper example for the children (grandkids?). Other than that.... I think helmets are mostly fashion statements. But I wouldn't consider riding without one.
