[TadMC]

We call 'em screw tops, cause when you take 'em off the brain all spills out.

[TadMC]

It all depends on how you feel. Im from Illinois and never owned a bike there before, but a few years ago I moved back home and realized there was no helmet law. I had ridden in the Carolinas for 3 years and it just felt weird to not wear one.

Over the weekend, another mc accident claimed the life of a biker. No helmet. The bike was a Harley. Why am I not surprised? The Harley boys will wear half-ton boots with soles as thick as a phone book, but not wear a helmet I guess they value their feet more than their face and brains. Come to think of it, based on their bike preference, riding style and cost of bike ownership, I shouldn't think that they're mental giants!

Ok, does anyone else think it's a little weird that the guy in the video with brain damage, Bradley, looks a lot like Ben Rothlisberger?

Helmet laws or not, I'll never ride without. For one, a bug would freakin hurt hittin you in the face on the freeway. That news guy said riding without a helmet "looks good," I think it looks stupid. Full face helmets look sweet.
