My family all ride. I want them safe, I want the best examples for the children in my family as they grow up riding. I almost lost my brother and his gf to an accident 10 yrs ago. In hospital and rehab for a few months. Their lives were saved by his fast response and their helmets.

It should be a no brainier people. Duh .

It's self explanatory. Why risk becoming disabled and burdening your family for a lifetime?

Stephanie Nichols

I. Think. To. Make. People stay safe. All the. Time why’ll riding

Pam Riehl

The survival rate is higher, if in an accident, with a helmet on. Drivers are distracted, and motorcycles aren't on their radar. A helmet may be the one chance a motorcycle list has to survive, and sustain less of a permanent brain injury.

MO should require nothing of anyone.

Bill Douglas

Yet you have no problem with millions of Missouri tax dollars being spent on a new football stadium at the Univeristy of Missouri so you Columbia Mo laptop liberals and calculator communists can worship at the false alter of UM Sports like the faithful little Marxist’s you are

Barry Gilbert

It should be a personal choice. But no public dollars should be spent on brain injured people who chose not to wear helmets.

What happened to my body my choice? Does the life in question only apply to certain individuals?

Do you spend more hours a week watching traditional entertainment or user generated content?

Way more time on new media.

Switched to YouTube from Cable like it so much better because of what we normally watch is programmed for us.

I'd say it's like 60/40 in favor of things like user generated content, but it has more to do with time than anything else. Due to things like work and chores, I just don't have time during the day for movies/TV. But for a few hours in the evening, I tend to watch more movies/TV, which I prefer.

This is one of those where I'm voting the honest truth, even though I'd prefer it be the other (while still making time for Geekvolution, of course). I think it's because of how casually I can spend hours on YouTube, as opposed to being intentional about catching up on content I intend to consume.
