Safety Should Come First!
Everyone should wear
a bike helmet when riding
a bike, but only about
half of bicyclists report
that they always wear
a helmet. Many riders
complain that helmets are
uncomfortable. Advances
in helmet technology can
change that. Helmets are
now made out of materials that
are very lightweight. Other helmets
have gel pads to make them more
comfortable. New designs also include
vents, or slits, to keep riders from getting
too hot. With these cool new helmets,
there's no excuse not to put
on!
