London, do you wear your seatbelt?Absolutely, airbags too. Hack I mentioned that much earlier. I can see
you don't read and remember very well on this issue. This does not surprise me because I'm gori...Posted in thread: Crash! on 12/03/2009 at 7:12AM
Yikes! That is something.Posted in thread: Do you use Helmets? on 12/03/2009 at 6:57AM
gator, on this very thread digitalmouse put in a link that will bring you to a ton of research going back
decades. It's more stuff than I've ever seen in one place. It will take you hours to read. Go ...Posted in thread: Crash! on 12/02/2009 at 6:07PM
I've never had a crash that I would consider really bad. Heck, as a teenager, I rode my BMX bike with my

London -Don't think I'm upset here, but do you come to a complete stop every time a car passes you on
your left if you are near an intersection? That is exactly what I would have had to do in both cas...Posted in thread: Crash! on 12/02/2009 at 4:05PM
I've been right-hooked two different times. Both times I ended up on the pavement. The second one
potato-chipped my front wheel, and left me with an interesting 54-tooth chainring mark on my leg for s...Posted in thread: Do you use Helmets? on 12/02/2009 at 3:57PM
I was quite comfortable throwing my 5,000lb Toyota Landcruiser with 31" tires into a four-wheel drift on
sections of Mulholland highway, but was unable to do anything to prevent some jackass in a 4WD ...Posted in thread: Do you use Helmets? on 12/02/2009 at 2:22PM
Hack you are correct. Helmets, like the old leather head nets, are great for stopping cuts and road rash.
Most people would wear one for just this reason, and that is not a bad idea. I prefer not to f...
