A lot of people don't like to wear helmets on bikes because they say it ruins the experience of the open road.

Yes, especially the experience of hitting an old lady in a luxury car.

A lot of people don't like to wear helmets on bikes because they say it ruins the experience of the open road.It does ruin the experience. I've been told that riding with a helmet is like trying to make love with a woman in the driver's side front seat of a '64 VW bug. Ugh!
;-)
But sometimes some experiences need to be curtailed, at least for a while.

A lot of people don't like to wear helmets on bikes because they say it ruins the experience of the open road. Ben found out that one bad driving idiot behind the wheel can ruin it a lot more.

"A lot of people don't like to wear helmets on bikes because they say it ruins the experience of the open road." It does ruin the experience and they are fricken hot. That being said, even if my nanny state of New York allowed me to ride without one, I would not.
Any Freeper bikers want to chime in on the coolest (temperature) helmets to wear? Without the wind in my remaining hair my head tends to get very warm on even mild days no matter how fast I ride.
