No problem.

My decision regarding helmets is long-standing, but was reinforced by my accident (caused by turkey buzzards in Georgia) a couple of years ago. Three cracked ribs, multitudinous bruises, and a splitting headache from the helmet crashing against the ground convinced me I’d be better off with the helmet.

Besides, if I rode with my nads they might throw my balance off! ;-P

Fortunately I have had few minor accidents on the road. Couple broke bones.

Most major accidents were on a track where I was covered head to toe in armour under controlled invironment.

I say anyone who rides unprotected has not been down....

...yet.
