Title: Bikes and helmets
Post by: AUTailgatingRules on August 16, 2013, 05:15:06 PM: Not really picking on Obama, but I have a question. Why would a grown adult out for a casual bike ride need to wear a helmet?

Would you don a helmet for a ride with the kids?

I did that stuff too when I was 12 and my bones were rubber and my skin was kevlar. Now my bones are dry rotted rubber and skin is seran wrap.
