Oh yes, I will always wear my helmet. I got hit this last summer, exactly one week after I got my helmet. The helmet was actually a gift from my mom; we were at a LBS and she convinced me to try some helmets on, I found one that I thought looked (surprisingly) nice, and she bought it for me. Thinking of family, they were always telling me I should wear a helmet, and my arrogant responses; I definitely hit my head and if hadn't of worn a helmet I would have been extremely embarrassed to say the least, or perhaps I would of had too much brain damage to understand the concept.
