One really good reason to wear a helmet is it provides a convenient

I prefer eyeglass mirrors, largely because they work with any hat, or
with none at all.

If my eyes were to undergo a miraculous cure so I'd never need
glasses, the mirror would mount some place on my bike.

Even if I didn't need corrective lenses, I'd still wear something over
my eyes.

Even if I always wore a helmet, I'd still prefer mounting the mirror to
the eye glasses, I treat my helmets a good deal more casually.

I also wear my mirror when rowing, I never wear a helmet.


My preference when riding a 'bent
is a full-face helmet with a fiberglass or carbon fiber shell that
will slide over asphalt or concrete.

Wow. Apparently, I worry much less than you do.

If I rode a 'bent, I'd wear a disguise (sorry, couldn't resist).
