My accident - quality opportunist pics inside!!!!

I have deleted my initial message from this topic due to the PC brigade having no sense of humour.

I've now deleted the story, it was supposed to be a bit of fun. If people think I didn't learn a lesson, even though I stated I've been to doctors/hopsital multiple times in the last year since my accident, and want to come on here shouting at me then I really cannot be arsed with getting involved.

I'll quite happily ride without a helmet most of the time, it's a risk/benefit analysis - helmets are hassle and popping down the shops without one is no problem. Similarly, I have just under 40mph without a helmet down a hill on my roadie without a helmet, no issues. But I didn't crash.

However, going mountain biking, especially jumping where a clear lack of skill is evident without a helmet really is stupid. See pic above.

OP - If you're not happy opening yourself up to ridicule, especially when posting crash pics then you need to re-evaluate your understanding of forums like these. We're all adults here (most of us) and can hopefully take the rough with the smooth.

I'm glad you got to the age of 38 without any serious head injuries. How about you try and keep things that way?

I've been around forums for longer than I can remember but rarely do I come across rude people like you replying on my threads. I was asked in another section to put up the full story, I did, I've now removed it.
You obviously have no real problems in your life if a picture of me not wearing a helmet down the local park gets you so irrate.
I object to your 1st post, as much as I know I should've had a helmet on, the way you come across just turns me the other way and now nothing you say is of any interest to me.
