Actually I got my idea that cycling poses certain risks about 35 years ago. I was riding my bike down King St in Stoney Creek admiring a couple of young ladies walking on the sidewalk. Because of my inattention I collided with a parked car. I was thrown over the handlebars and into the car. This occurred long before anyone even thought of wearing a helmet while cycling. I have put many many miles on my bikes over the years. This was not the only accident I was involved in but it was the only one that was totally my fault. If helmets had been available then that incident would have convinced me to wear one.
