That would be my head.

If you ride slowly on cycle paths or in Copenhagen, you can get by without one. Over 10kph/6mph and in mixed traffic, just cope with helmet hair. Brains belong on the inside!

Broken left thumb, fab bruise on right arm and thigh (I came down on my right: I think I broke the thumb with my handlebars) and a lot of muscle soreness today. Hot bath will fix half of that! Helmets rule!
