Seeing as this thread is all over the place like a madmans #$%*e I'd like to add this. Sandals/helmets/protection

I was getting out of my car last week when I saw a harassed mother with a pram and two children on trikes coming towards me on the footpath. The two year old runs the front wheel of her plastic trike thing off the footpath and into the gutter. The child falls down through the handlebars and her head just arced down to the gutter and goes SMACK!! Lands right on her face.

I'm telling you, that child would have been killed FOR SURE if her mother hadn't had the sense to put a helmet on here AND have the strap done up.

Re my avatar. I'is a gif but I can't get it to move. Sorry boys.

I fell off my bike in gravel at high speeds on concrete at slow speeds and variations of both.... Got black eyes and scrapes and cuts and even broke my handlebars off once...

No broken bones ever. *knocks on wood*.... Anyone remember steak or frozen vegetable bags on your face?? Good times.  ;D
