hard headed

A classmate of mine attempted to mock me for wearing a helmet. "No one wears a helmet in Europe," he says.

I asked him if European streets or cars are softer than their American counterparts. His counter was cruiser bikes do not need helmets. I asked him if the pavement hurts less at lower speeds.

That is my legal training paying off and I exercised it in the international forum. Tuition dollars at work.

I have noticed two other people wearing helmets on their cruiser bikes. I see a trend developing over here...
