Motivation to wear a helmet

I'm starting this thread of all the dumba$$es like me who aren't wearing helmets.

No digicam so I can't take a picture of the big fat knot on my head or the blood coming out of it.

Was doing about 15mph, came to a part of the sidewalk where the sidewalk had buckled up about 1 foot. Took the jump and did a hop up it, got about 2.5 or 3 feet total in the air but didn't land it. Rolled, hit head pretty hard, ended up in a high traffic street but jumped up and out of it pretty quick, at least it felt quick.

Now I have to true up two wheels, front had to have the brake disconnected as I almost taco'd the wheel.

Oh, and, buy a helmet before I try any more stupid crap like that again.
