Riding without a helmet is cool. People who ride with helmets when they
train (like Liz Hatch) are the same people crash into curbs and slide out on
leaves and then claim their helmet saved them. But talented people like
myself don't need no ****ing Puerto Rican cooler lid because we don't ride
like Booby Jew-lick or Lizard Hatch

Only spazzes stack it in training.

If Bernard Hinault won 5 Tours and never wore a hardhat, you don't ****ing
need one either. Cyclists who wear helmets on training rides look like
some type of ****ing construction foreman who needs to lay down some rebar
in concrete.

Confessing to your head injuries explains a lot towards the compulsive
delusional ranting and your obsession with homoerotica although your
public display of both in this forum remains questionable.

Bernard Hinault actually wore a helmet for some of these wins.

The "helmet" he wore was nearly as effective as the cap he wore the rest of
the time. So let's not pretend that putting anything helmet-like on your
head constitutes wearing a helmet.

Of course we could pretend that present day helmets are in some manner
effecticve as well but at least there is SOME effects from them.

Play it again, Sam. This time, use the correct lyrics.

The Badger wore a Jackie Simes softshell. He never wore one of those styrofoam
Long Island Latino coolers that you see on the beach down at Coney Island.

ilan - you really shouldn't be up at the front of the peloton anyway. Go back
and get me a water bottle.
