Reply #79: I crashed less than a month ago at well over 100mph. Im still here.

[Mr Rabble]

I am a roadracer, and I crashed at over 100mph on July 3rd. I was wearing full leathers, body armor, gloves, boots, and of course a helmet.

I lost no skin.
I broke no bones.

I did sprain my ankle, and I was bruised.

Without my safety gear, I would not be writing this post.

Anyone trying to argue that helmets do more harm than good should be put into the same category with climate change deniers, and flat earthers.

Im not saying that helmets should be lawfully mandated- I think it should be up to the rider. What I am saying is that they will save your life. Period.
