Hell-mate ?

a close save

Wearing a helmet while biking out is something that still needs to sink into the Indian Psyche. Most people feel awkward to wear a helmet while cycling for various reasons.

Learning from your mistakes is not an option here. Besides these helmets are really light and you hardly feel them on the ride.

Turn out with the correct gear – not only is the ride turn a lot more comfortable but its a lot safer too.

    Hi, I ride. I wear helmet. And am proud of it. True! It gets me strage looks - "in a country where wearing helmet while riding a motro-bike is considered sissy, here's one guy riding a bicycle wearing helmet". Franky, I don't give a damn (very "Gone With the Windish that!). Actually, it is other guys (guys hanging their helmets on the motorcycle handles, guys who hand their helmet over to the pillion riders and the guys who ride bicycle without helmets) who need to get their head examined - before they lose theirs in an accident. Amitabh PS: All those who do not wear helmets, I have a small experiment for you. Just walk into a wall. And checkout how it feels. If at 5 kmph it feels like that, imagine what will happen if you fall from a bike from 1m height and at a minimum speed of 20 kmph. PPS: All of the above is typed without any malice. So kindly do not take offence.

    Hi,I own a AVON BOOM, its not as cool as a TREK but,it serves the purpose,i ride to college and back everyday,and I always wear a helmet.I think its the most important part of your cycling gear.Of course,you get lots of comments shot at you, from ignorant bystanders,but safety comes first and therefore, I think a helmet should be made compulsory!!!
