Top Reasons to Never Ride Without a Helmet

Riding a bicycle can be dangerous. A recent article published by the U.S. Department of Transportation reported that in just one year, there were 818 fatalities and 45,000 injuries for bike riders. Even those who ride an adult tricycle are not free from danger. While adult trikes are more stable because of a third wheel, it does not mean that injury is impossible. Whether you’re riding adult trikes, bicycles, or cargo bikes, always wear a helmet to reduce the risk of injury.Cargo Bikes

Wearing a helmet when riding allows you to:

Protect your head and brain - Protection is the number one reason to wear a helmet while riding. Riders who wear helmets reduce their chance of a head injury by 50 percent, according to the U.S. Department of Transportation.

Show off your sense of style - Helmets come in so many unique styles. Choosing a helmet allows you to showcase your style. Aside from a multitude of colors, helmets come adorned with animals, flowers, sports teams, and more.

Set a good example for children - Children often do as they see, not as they are told. You can instruct your child to wear a helmet 100 times, but if they see you ride without wearing one, they are unlikely to listen. Lead by example and guide your child by always wearing a helmet when you go out riding.

Be protected from the elements - If your trike is your only mode of transportation to and from work, you’ll sometimes ride in undesirable weather. A helmet protects your hair from the rain. Helmets also protect from UV rays.
