Have you met my mother? Cycling was a no no, as were rope swings, and walking on walls - because - ready for this, and remember I was about 5 - you can damage yourself and no decent man will want you.
I remember looking at the scabs on my damaged knees, and thinking it a bit silly. I also wasnt allowed to catch sticklebacks in the river, or paddle in it on a hot summers afternoon for fear of drowning. Of course I did all these things - but out of sight of course.
On helmets - cycling i got carved up by a taxi, had to leave the bike to save myself from full impact, banged my head landing - and for a few years my sentences would be in my head, but when I tried to vocalise them - the words would vanish. I did manage to find words at the time, as passers by kindly helped me out of the road (on a roundabout) - I believe they were 'You Fucking Wanker!' The police had an ambulance take me away.
Q. Those of you who prefer to ride topless - would you rather your kids wore helmets if they rode bikes, or would it not worry you either way? Oh and whats wrong with those fuckwits who dont wear adequate footwear when out on a moterbike - see the kids out on their bikes in the summer in shorts and trainers - and how stupid is that.
