Why it’s unsafe to ride without a helmet

Video

Sexist?  Yes.  Funny?  Have a look and you decide.  This is an extremely old one – as seen on the Paul Hogan Show.

This is so old that it pre-dates our mandatory helmet laws.  But a helmet may have saved a life here!

Count the female cyclists.  The ratio of female cyclists is a good measure of a safe cycling culture.  Next time you’re out on cycling (or driving) do your own informal survey of the cyclists you see.  How does Geelong/your town fare in this measure of cycle-friendliness?
