I can certainly agree that bicycle head injuries are rare. I am a
member of the "over-the-handlebars" club and it wasn't a lot of fun
smashing my head against the sidewalk. Now, just in case, I do wear a
helmet. Simply because I don't want to end up with a more serious
injury than what I had then.

The problem with Frank is that he first decided that he was against
helmets then he went out and looked for data that supported his
position. Unable to find any statistically or scientifically sound data
to support his views, he decided on the approach of the birthers and the
global warming deniers, just make it up!

When confronted with the facts, that he actually knows to be true, he
retreats to the world of "driving helmets" and such.

Incidentally, if you want data from the authoritative site on helmet
myths and facts, just put "helmet myths" into Google and click on "I'm
Feeling Lucky." You'll be taken to the #1 site on the web that explores
the myths and facts regarding bicycle helmets and it effectively debunks
most of what Frank posts regarding helmets. If you have "Google Instant"
on, that site will show up at the top when you enter "helmet myths."
It's also #1 on Yahoo. Oh wait, I forgot to mention, it's my site!
