@modacitylife It only took me watching one person have a technical failure with his front wheel at a reasonable speed, fly over to the handle bar, go head first into the asphalt, and be rendered motionless in the middle of the street to convince me to start using a helmet as frequently as I can manage.
Sure, I still frequently forget and it would never stop me from cycling to a party or home tipsy or, but for cycling to work every day it's just an incredibly small inconvenience for adding an extra level of security should something go wrong somewhere.
Granted, I currently live in Italy, which is the opposite of the Netherlands in terms of bike infrastructure. Still, I'm considered a weirdo foreigner for cycling around in my dorky helmet. I'll take it.
