If I go on a ride with the crew I'll wear one. Around the house not at all.

Never ride without one. I have crashed and a helmet saved my life.

I never wore one, but know I have a 2 week old son and I wanna be around for him, and usually luck runs out. So why risk not wearing one, it took me 10 riding years to wise up and now I'm glad I did.

90% of the time I do. If I don't my daughter gets pretty naggy about it. It only makes sense to try to protect the melon.

Ya, fall backwards and catch youself with your head and see how it feels. Now imagine launching into a tree or rock. My head may not seem to valuable most of the time, but I think I'd like to keep it the way it is. Wear a helmet!!!
