    Hi! We are the Dublin Cycling Campaign: an independent and voluntary
    Lobby group. We have been working for the last fifteen years to improve
    Dublin city for all cyclists. We want living streets; streets that are
    More sociable, streets that are fair and friendly
    to cyclists, and all other road users. We want Dublin city to be
    A place where you cycle to a traffic light, stop and
    chat with your neighbour, while you're waiting. To do this we lobby,
    we talk to press, we do research, we organise events, and
    we want to get people like you involved. So
    join our cause.

    @TourAbsurd thanks for the link. On reading the article and especially the comments and links after it it's clear that the title is spurious and hence the question mark. I've heard the arguments before and the studies for and against but the bottom line is you will come off the bike at some stage and when it happens you will be better off with a helmet. Good luck with the campaign.

    Good luck with the campaign but why is no one wearing a helmet in this video?

    @philocall First, more people riding. Then talk about helmets.

    @philocall Because it's not a logical thing to do. #1, the risk of head injuries from driving is comparable, per hour -- so why not wear promote helmets for that, too? #2, the choice not ride a bike is a much larger health risk than the choice to ride with no helmet (it's been measured). It would be more logical to ask, whenever you see someone driving alone in a car in an urban area, "why are they driving?" It's a much larger risk to not get exercise.
