Most bike trails require helmets for good reason.

One of my son in laws bicycling friends had a bad fall from his bike, and a serious head injury, from which he has now pretty much recovered.
His surgeon was in no doubt he would have been 'dead on arrival' without his helmet.
Still cannot understand mentality of motor bikers riding with a bandanna or ball cap on head, and not a crash helmet.
