DJR Posted December 30, 2013 Posted December 30, 2013 News 24 and their stupid uninformative dumb journalism. I wish their boss would kick their arses to do a proper job, get the facts and write a story. This "tweet" of an article leaves more questions than answers! Vasbyt youngster, I pray that you make it and recover.

Tankman Posted December 30, 2013 Posted December 30, 2013 Helmet, no helmet is irrelevant to me.Wishing the family all the best and the youngster a full recovery. That is true. Wont make a difference now and no point in going down the "what if" route either. It just p*sses me off to the bone seeing fellow cyclist endangering their own lives.The fact that it is law to wear a helmet on public roads, seems to bother them not! I am amazed daily at how few people know this law.
