Still Refuse To Ride a Bike With a Helmet?

Maybe this will convince you otherwise:

Truck Runs Over Cyclists Head, Crushing Helmet Leaving Head in Tact

That photo will do more for Giro marketing than a 100 Lance Armstrongs ever could. Amazing.

    Regardless of the controversy in the comments, I shall show that photo to my 8 year-old. He doesn't have a problem with the helmet, really, but just to reinforce our rule, I guess.

    p.s. You do know about "Wired to Win: Surviving the Tour de France" IMAX movie don't you? I saw a trailer for it at the Science Center on a field trip and wrote it down in the dark to make sure to remember.

    Jane, I knew about the movie but I didn't realize it was coming here so soon.

    I'm in. Too bad it's not in 3D. ;)

    My son's school had their Picnic and Walkathon on Friday, the Fire Dept. always comes to check and sell helmets--I printed out the article and the photo--they were all staring at it when I went outside.
