Back to the squirrels and helmets. Our good cycling friend from Texas has reinforced the need for us to wear helmets. As good as many of us are at handling a bike we can save ourselves serious injury by simply strapping on a helmet. Thanks for the excellent reminder Lyndel!!
I went down HARD this spring while riding in a park.
Like Txtigah, I broke my collarbone when I landed on my side in a too tight curve.
I was not wearing a helmet and did not get any head injuries. Still, I took that as a warning and have been wearing a helmet ever since.
