Josh Williams will back us up on this statement - "Cycle Helmets Save Heads".

Josh was competing in a recent MTB Fun Ride in Wairakei Forest, and came off as we all do at times.  And young Josh became intimately aquainted with a rather large, solid and immovable tree.  His helmet shattered in the impact, saving him from a certain head injury.

Josh did lose some skin, and  his face sure would have been sore for a few days, but at least skin grows back.

NEVER RIDE WITHOUT A HELMET,  FOLKS.  HEADS ARE WORTH PROTECTING.

Huka Honda very kindly donated a new helmet to Josh after this wee incident.

As we say, Josh would have been sore for a while.  But it was only a matter of days before he was back on his bike again, wearing his new helmet, and keen to compete again.
