I sometimes ride with guys that refuse to wear helmets, at the Wayne National Forest no less.

Maybe previous excursions without a helmet is what mede them so stupid.

That reminds me, I have a nice helmet in the back of my truck that I found next to a dumpster today, it'll make a good loaner.

 

Magnum we were riding in weathersfield near youngstown as for the new machine thinking about the scrambler 500 i want the sportsman but it seems to big for some of the trails we ride the trail boss i am going to keep and try to put back together for for my wife and maybe my daughter when she gets older if i can repair it so its safe again

 

sorry if it sounds like i am whining just had to blow off some steam and thanks to all with there well wishes hopefully in a couple months i will be on the trail again

 

Im only 15 and i dont think its macho not tp wear a helment the reason why i wear a helment is becuz i was goin down a gravel road and i couldnt make the turn and off the bank i went and hit a big oak tree and i smacked my head of the tree.
Knocked me out cracked the helment yes cracked the helment. Now i feel naked wit out one.

 

Hillclimbing, I know how you feel, I was in a headon with a Banshee on a dirt Drag strip back in July and it destroyed my DS and broke my foot. Hope you have a quick recovery.

 

There is one other thing nobody ever thinks about too... The stuff the guy in front of you throws back! It hardly ever happened until I rode with a dirtbike in front of me.

We just turned onto a gravel road and he hit the throttle. Rock shower! Ouch! Thank god for the helmet and goggles. Without them I would have chunks of hair missing and only one eye leaft!

Wear it...there are plenty of other bones to break!

 

SORRY TO HEAR ABOUT YOUR WRECK HOPE EVERYTHING WILL BE OK. ITS PEOPLE LIKE THAT THAT RUINS RIDING FOR EVERYONE WHEN WILL YOU BE RIDING AGAIN IT SEEMS LIKE YOU DONT LIVE TO FAR AWAY FROM ME SO WHEN YOU ARE READY GIVE ME A YELL
