Good post about post accident review of a cyclist’s accident and a link to 10 road cycling safety tips.

I agree that wearing a helmet is important, but that statistically speaking when someone gets killed by a car they’re usually crushed to death and smashed in ways that not even a motorcycle helmet would have saved them. But in more common typical spills, hitting gravel, another riders tire etc. and just flying into the road, I think a properly worn helmet can help.  So please wear a helmet as head injuries suck, I have a friend with one and it’s very sad thing to have to see happen to a person!
