I will have to share this science with my teen-age sons. "Boys, if you are going to ride no-hands, be safe about it - make sure you are going as fast as possible. Oh, and by the way, the same goes for safe-sex. Fast+no hands = safe.". "Now, don't tell your mother we had this conversation. This is just between us fellows..."
