I'm looking for a hard-headed woman...
A co-worker who shall remain nameless has taken to riding -- as often as possible -- a very nice bike she calls "Myrtle." It even has a little bell. However, because she rides on the sidewalk and stays mostly in her neighborhood, she refuses to wear a helmet since, as she argues, a helmet (especially those aerodynamic ones so popular with the kids!) just "wouldn't go with Myrtle."
"Safety first," we say.
Right, Sister?

Somebody, please, invent something for old women bike riders - say a helmet with a lovely straw hat look. Necessity - the mother of invention.
ReplyDelete"Most bike accidents occur within a few blocks of home." I know a family on our street that did no outfit their kid with a bike helmet when riding a tricycle. Until, he took a tumble, knocked himself out and got six stitches. And while he was being closely supervised. Get with it sister. Wear the helmet.
