Good cycling infrastructure works better than any helmet, if you're cycling with a helmet, don't forget getting involved in trying to make your area more cycle safe, too.
Yeah fuck off. I'm keeping my helmet and I'll keep on judging dimwits riding without. Fucking stupid riding without.
Yeah, it's simple as that. 100% of dutch cyclists are fucking stupid /s
Edit: typo
sure, keep on wearing your helmet, but don't let it obscure you from fighting the real problem: badly designed streets making cycling unsafe.
The whole of the Netherlands thinks you're a knob
That's going to be awkward if he never needs to find some whores and acid, but otherwise I think he'll be okay.
Be sure to wear one as a pedestrian and while driving a car, too. Risk of head injury is actually comparable so all arguments for wearing a helmet apply.
Only we as a society have decided that wearing a helmet during those activities isn't needed but on a bicycle it is.
more people die falling down stairs & hitting their head, than riding a bicycle & hitting their head. A helmet should only be necessary if you're going very fast (road bike, fast e-bike) or off-road (mountainbike). If felt needed by the majority of cyclists in regular urban situation: how the urban environment was built, sucks.
