Well, someone's gotta do it...might as well be me.

It is not INSANE to drive without a helmet. It is not abnormal to ride without a helmet (drive Wisconsin roads anyday to see just how normal it is). It does not mean anyone has a death wish who rides without a helmet. Which is not to say it isn't SAFER to ride with a helmet. But it is our choice, and we do so with full understanding of the risks involved. And stop saying motorcyles are inherently UNSAFE. The only people who say such things don't ride. Learn how to ride one, you'll have a much different opinion. Whoever said "squids"...that's nice, isn't it? That's a good sign of respect for people's choice to ride on two wheels on the roads, isn't it? No wonder we have trouble with idiot car drivers when we ride. They already dismiss us so easily, small wonder they do the same thing when they're driving.
