Since all the hullabaloo over helmets and coming to the realisation that what
I had always assumed to be self evident wasn't, I have taken to riding on road
sans helmet (still wear one off-road). Today was my first big helmetless
excursion in London on the Brommie and I have to say it felt most insecure. I
spent much more time checking traffic and being cautious. Maybe years of
conditioning are hard to get rid of or maybe that feeling of insecurity is
what makes it safer.
