I thought the same thing. Labeling a bike riding person as a non cyclist and making a point of no helmet or gloves as if that is an important factor .... maybe in qualifying as a "cyclist"? Based on all the personal examples of helmets "saving my brain" etc. we should score this one for helmets not needed for safely crashing.
