I ride in Boston. Spring, Summer and fall every day and to do so without a helmet is a mistake. I've a few stories about almost getting clobbered by cars. They all involve women texting or gabbing on their phones.

Biking down Boylston street without helmet would be outright insanity. Buddy of mine saw a kid get hit by car not too long ago. Kids head went into the windshield face first. No helmet.

Completely agree with the condemnation of the the entire biking culture though. Really make things difficult for the rest of us.

oh - I should add I've never worn a piece of spandex my entire life.

“I ride in Boston. Spring, Summer and fall every day”

If you fall every day, then you should wear a helmet, or maybe get some training wheels... ;-)
