Always wear you helmet when cycling or motor cycling or skate boarding or roller blading or whatever you do for fun. It's not the perceived dangerous moves that get you it is the innocent small things like this that get you. I’ve never worn a helmet while riding a bike. The day I put one on, I’ll fall on my head. But, it is safer. Knew an older gent who got into bike riding and fell in NYC on the street. He was never the same again. Was in the hospital for a few months. Totally scrambled his brain and cognitive functions 🙁 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't like my bike helmet, it looks stupid, it is hot as hell in the summer, it is not that comfortable compared to just a ball cap for instance. I still wear it every time. I learned the value of helmets playing hockey when I as young. I was pissed at a guy on the other team so I took a run at him across the rink. Just as I got there another guys stick hit my skates and I went head first into the boards. Broke my helmet, as in cracked it in half. No injury to me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got up slow they looked at me and it was 'you're good to go.' Football was even worse, In a practice drill I dove at a guys legs to make a tackle head first was obviously concussed bell run, dizzy the whole bit. Just staggered back into line for the next rep. Now you know why I am like I am. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dont play any contact sports for years. Getting a helmet is a wise move. When I was younger pre-adolescent days I used to fall out of bed a lot and land right on my head. Looking back I must have had several concussions. Not making this up either. You wouldn’t happen to have a spare helmet would you? I got a pretty big head actually.😂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think maybe he's driving the ATV. Notice the Packer colors ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
