.@NB49820460 1/2 It's is an assertion to say that cyclists who don't wear styrofoam bowls on their heads put themselves at risk. Drivers behave more aggressively towards bowl-wearing riders. The protective power of such a thing,while riding upright at 10 MPH, is, er, exaggerated. — PolitiTweet.org

@isaacckay170493 What is the connection between those statements? Cyclists face many dangers , but there is scant objective evidence that a styrofoam bowl protects commuter riders against them, whereas we do know that drivers are more aggressive to bowl wearers. — PolitiTweet.org

@ClarkeMicah @MozzMan Your lack of styrofoam bowl makes me concerned for your safety, Mr Hitchens. The roads are dangerous for cyclists.

2/2 .@NB49820460 People think bike helmets are like motorcycle helmets.They should take a look at one. Motorbike helmets are far too heavy for cyclists to use. No helmet will protect a cyclist from being hit from behind at speed by a drug driver, or crushed by a turning lorry. — PolitiTweet.org
