'Wear a helmet!' Halfords advises... because a tree branch might fall on your head — UK's largest cycling retailer then offers help to one 'concerned about falling trees' troll asking for a helmet recommendation for a walk in the forest... cycling
First thing's first, I'll save you your comment asking: why we're doing the helmet 'debate' again? You're bored of it, I'm bored of it. Fair enough.
With that said, we thought we probably should share the reaction to Halfords, the UK's largest cycling retailer, posting this story to its 63,000 followers and advising riders that they"strongly recommend" wearing one... apparently... in case a tree branch falls on your head? Bike helmets can literally save lives & prevent cyclists from incurring brain damage in extreme circumstances. They’re the equivalent of airbags for a car – you wouldn’t want to be without them.
