Cyclists wanting to get rid of compulsory helmet wearing

[BMWST?]

Now come on, let the cyclists do what they want. Cyclists are perfect in every way .
They shouldn't have to follow the law and should be able to do whatever they want on the road even though they contribute nothing towards it as cyclists.
I actually feel inferior to these paragons of perfectness every time I use the road in my car or on my motorbike.

most cyclists pay their taxes which helped build the roads in the first place

It would be naive to suggest that "most" cyclists do not own a vehicle that requires regristration.

Hmmm. I wasnt trying to be smart and apologise if it came across like that..

Not a problem. Apologies are good, offers of beer are better...

I would rather my head be in a helmet hitting the ground, than not.

Agreed. Though that might depend on the helmet. I don't believe open face and cycle helmets are worth a pinch of shit in the scheme of things. There's a reason for fullface/MX helmets....
