Always! A brain is a terrible thing to waste.

 

[GYPSYGAL]

Always,epper: unless I'm in a parade with a group of riders!!!

I always wear a helmet. Had an accident once and the first thing to hit the road was my head. The heaviest part of your body is your head.

 

[jtilmon]

Never leave home without it on!!

No Helmet?

For all you No Helmet riders and those that wear it on the Highway only or not for short hops to the store.. Local TV weatherman fell off his bicycle this weekend an bumped his head on the curb. He died today. No Helmet

we repealed the helmet law in missouri a few years back and our governor carnahan vetoed it, he died in a plane wreck not long after that, guess he should have been wearing a helmet.

That same thing happened to my cousin many years ago.
He was in the Air Force and stationed in Texas.
While riding his motorcycle in town, he lost control and fell, sliding into the curb with his head (no helmet on).
Dead on impact.

I had a friend who fell off of his bike while wearing a helmet. He died that day. I personally wear my helmet every time I get on the bike.

Re: No Helmet?

I think its not the helmet that bothers us as much as the LAW. Tell your kids to wear a helmet. As for me , I got this !
I think we should be able to make up our own minds with out a LAW telling us to do what should be common sense.
If I'm not smart enough or don't care if my brains are all over me then its my fault if it happens. Helmets do not prevent accedents .

I'm done ranting now..........carry on..........

Re: No Helmet?

IMHO if you choose not to wear a helmet then please make sure "organ donor" is checked on your licence...

Re: No Helmet?

This guy went down by himself. Got back on the bike and drove home. He lived to ride another day

Re: No Helmet?

There are lots of "Laws" that are passed to protect us and the public from us. Seat belts, smoke detectors, sprinklers, etc

 

[rhino 2]

Re: No Helmet?

And one day there might laws to outlaw Motorcycles...
There's no stopping politicians from protecting us...From our self.

I firmly believe if Motorcycles were just invented ''Yesterday'', They would be outlawed'
''Today''..

The Preamble says "PROMOTE the General Welfare"....
NOT Legislate, Mandate, Provide, Insure, Require, etc....
But Hell,,, That's just the very Foundation of The Country & the Cornerstone of the Rule of Law.
THAT doesn't matter and what did they know right??????

I am a Firm Believer in Helmets
AND
A Firm Believer in Life, Liberty, and Freedom as defined and guaranteed by the Constitution NOT usurped and bastardized by wayward Politicians and dictatorial Elitists.
Marxist Incrementalism at its finest.
Yesterday- Seatbelts & Helmets.
Today-Big Macs, Big Gulps, Redistribution of Wealth and the 2nd Amendment.
Tomorrow-----------?
Karl would be proud and Nikita was spot-on right.

Wake Up, Wise Up, Rise Up.
I'll be wearing my Helmet when I do ThumbUp
But it will be Kevlar
Does Nolan or Arai make a Full-Face of that preferably in Subdued Urban Camo? :laugh:
