A neighbor 1/2 a block from his home dropped his Sportster in our lawn this evening, managing to break some ribs and hit his head hard enough to pass out.

Was he wearing one?

If so, it probably saved his life.
If not, then maybe he'll reconsider riding or not wearing a helmet.

Should have been wearing his rib protector too.

Nope.  Managed to dent his tank, tear off the windshield, coat the frame bars w/ grass, & tear some divots in the lawn.  We're in a residential neighborhood, speed limit is 30, I usually drive about 20.  No traffic, streets are dry.  He managed to lay it down & slide it into the curb.

Wearing a helmet isn't going to prevent you from getting knocked out but it's crazy not to wear one.

Darwin loves the no helmet types.
Darwin also loves the driving beyond their skill set types.

He's a doctor.  Clearly not a head doctor, but a practicing doctor, apparently.

He needs to not be selfish and protect his noggin.

But at least he didn't look like a pussy while laying in the street unconscious.  










I wear a helmet religiously.
