骑行仙湖、梧桐山和东部，经常发现拒戴头盔的单车车友有增无减（包括手套和前灯尾闪都没有）。尤其梧桐山和仙湖，几乎我每次出去骑车都会遇见车友摔车。细忖之下，常理推断应该有如下理由可以拒戴头盔护具！

1.你非常人，在单车运动中,任何情况下都不会摔车和发生事故；
2.你在骑行过程中，所有的机动车和障碍物都会让着你；
3.你平时不用带着脑袋出门骑车，头盔是累赘；
4.带脑袋骑车的时候，你的脑壳比地壳结实；
5.你的脑袋再生能力强，就像壁虎的尾巴（观海2008提供）；
6.你是传说中的九头鸟，就是摔坏1、2个头也不用在意（棋茶客提供）；
7.你车技娴熟，又是属猫的，有9条命（两轮法拉利提供）；
8.你万一摔车都用脸部来冲撞轮组等相对柔软物体，不用头盔。有图有真相！

9.这么柔软的地面没必要戴头盔

.还有别的理由请车友增补！

如果不是这样的话，头盔的作用就是：让我们再活一次！
如果生命消失了，别的东西都不重要了！

附转帖（蚂蚁校对）：THE TOP 16 REASONS PEOPLE GIVE FOR  NOT  WEARING HELMETS
不戴头盔的16个理由翻译：佚名

1. “I have a hard head.”我的头很硬。
If you fall over while SITTING STILL on an UNMOVING bicycle and strike your head on the ground, your head “travels” FASTER than the 7 miles an hour it takes to fracture your skull and KILL you!
你坐在静止的自行车上摔倒在地时，你的头部是以每小时7英里的速度着地，足可导致你的头骨破裂而亡。

2. “I ONLY ride on dirt and grass and go slowly.” 我仅仅是在土路或者草地慢行而已。
So what? See Reason 1#. You CAN’T go slower than STOPPED!那又证明什么呢？借鉴一下第一条，难道你的速度比停下来更慢!

3.(Adults) “I never wore one as a child.”(成年人) “ 我从来不会打扮成象孩子一样”。
Of course not! Nobody did before helmets first went on sale in the mid-1970’s!当然不是, 在1970年中期头盔第一次市场发售时没有人去买来戴。

4. “I’ve lived this long without wearing a helmet.”我没有戴头盔, 但我一直活着很好。
Using that logic, very old people sould argue that despite having never received the vaccines we give children today, they’re still alive. Therefore, we should stop inoculating children! 按这种逻辑，年纪很大的长者们就可以争辩：他们小时候也没打过疫苗，但时至今日还活着。因此，应该停止给孩子们接种疫苗。

5.“Helmets look stupid.” 戴上头盔给人的感觉是傻傻的。
PEOPLE WITH SERIOUS, PREVENTABLE HEAD INJURIES LOOK “STUPID!” 遭受本来可以预防的、颅脑重度损伤的人，看起来更“猪头”。

6.(Teenagers) “I’m not going to die.”(青少年) “ 我才不会死”。
Probably not in a bicycle accident! In the entire U. S., we average only 2 - 3 bicycle-related deaths per day, but there ARE between 200 and 300 permanent brain injuries per day. THAT’S the risk! Nearly 90% of all head injuries resulting in permanent brain damage or death could be prevented by helmet use. The largest, most expensive risk is crippling injury…NOT death! 在全美, 或许不仅是自行车造成意外事故。但平均每天2-3 起是有关自行车死亡事故, 每天发生200-300例脑部永久性伤亡事故发生，这是很大的风险系数，可以说头盔的使用，可以预防接近90％的头部受伤导致大脑永久性损害或者死亡比例。最严重的、最昂贵的事故是极度的受伤，而不是死亡。

7. “My friends (or parents!) don’t wear them.” 我的朋友们（或者父母亲）不戴头盔。
If your friend went and jumped off a bridge…would you?!如果你的朋友从桥上跳下去，你会吗？

8. “Helmets are heavy.” 头盔太重。
Most weigh between 9 and 16 ounces, that’s a pound or less! NOTE: CHEAPER helmets often ARE heavier.大多数的头盔的重量在9-16盎司之间，这只是磅的单位甚至更轻！注意：廉价的头盔大多数都很重。

9. “Helmets are hot!” 戴头盔太热。
They can be when you’re not riding. Air ventilation and cooling systems work best while you’re riding. Also, CHEAPER helmets with fewer “air holes” ARE HOTTER. In hot weather, wear a sweat band around your head to keep sweat out of your eyes. In cold weather, wear ear warmers or thin cloth hoods (called balaklavas) under your helmet for warmth. 当你没有骑行的时候，戴头盔感觉太热。当你骑行的时候，头盔的空气通风和冷却系统得到了最好的利用，而且，便宜的头盔只有很少几个通风口，所以会热。在炎热的天气里，戴一个“止汗带”在你的头上，防止汗水流到眼睛里。在寒冷的季节里，要戴“护耳套”或者戴有弹性的薄的头巾（名字叫balaklavas）在里面保暖。

10.  “Helmets are uncomfortable.”戴头盔不舒服。
Cheaper ones ARE OFTEN less comfortable. They’re sold where NO ONE knows how to correctly fit or adjust them which makes all the difference in helmet comfort. 便宜的头盔一般都不太舒服。（制造商）他们没有一个人知道怎么样才是是正确的合适的、或者调节头盔所有不同的地方使得头盔更加合适。

11.  “I can’t keep the darned thing adjusted!”不能忍受不能调节尺寸的头盔。
Bike shops are experts at proper helmet sizing and adjustment, and are happy to correctly adjust or re-adjust your helmet for you.
自行车店的头盔是特有规格尺寸的可调节的头盔，而且愿意帮你调节或者重新调节到（适合你的）头盔的尺寸。

12.  “Helmets are expensive.” 头盔很贵。
The average head trauma, ambulance ride, emergency room visit, x-rays, doctor’s bills, etc., IF THERE’S NO SERIOUS INJURY will easily cost a thousand dollars! That’s almost 50 TIMES the cost of a helmet! 一般的头损伤，救护车、急诊室、医生费用等等，如果不是很严重的损伤，就不会花掉上千美元的费用，相当于50倍的一个头盔的价格。

13. “Helmets are ugly. 头盔很难看。
Helmet styling and appearance are important, especially to kids. They’re more likely to wear their helmet if they “like how it looks.” 头盔的款式和外观很重要，特别是对于孩子。他们更喜欢戴上头盔看上去更漂亮。

14. “Helmets make me look like a mushroom-head!” 头盔使我看是去象个蘑菇头。
Helmets come in many different shapes Some have plastic visors on the front to shield eyes from sun or rain. Visors create the “optical illusion” of narrowing the helmet, reducing what some call the “mushroom head” look.头盔有不同种的类型，有些头盔的前方带有塑料帽舌，是为了保护眼镜免遭太阳的暴晒和雨天的雨水。塑料帽舌给人的感觉是使得头盔看上去变的狭窄，改善了有人说的看上去象蘑菇头的说法。

15. “Helmets mess-up my hair.”头盔弄乱了我的头发。
Yes, but not as badly as a head injury! Carry a comb!没错，不会象损害头部那样糟，带一个梳子就成了。

16. “How can helmets protect you? They BREAK if you fall!”头盔是怎样保护你的？如果你摔倒，头盔会破裂，而不是你（的脑袋）。
Helmets are MADE to break.  That's what they're SUPPOSED to do!  Helmets are made of a material that absorbs a blow and will fracture, crush, or break when the head hits something. THAT’S HOW THEY PROTECT THE BRAIN (…and why they’re called “brain buckets”!). Helmets are designed to withstand ONE FALL! Replace a helmet after ANY head impact. It did its job! 头盔的目的就是破裂，这就是头盔应该的作用。头盔所用的材质就是一种遭到突然的撞击就破碎，当头部撞击到什么东西时，头盔就会粉碎，或者破裂。这就是头盔保护头部的作用。（也就是为什么头盔被称呼为“头的桶子”）头盔的设计是至少经受住一次的撞击！在任何一次的碰撞后，要换掉旧的头盔，这就是头盔的作用。

A properly fitted helmet should be adjusted to be snug on the head, with the front just above the eyebrows, and the retention straps positioned and tightened to keep the helmet “in place” on the head without sliding around. Bike shop people are EXCELLENT at properly adjusting helmets. 一个合适尺寸的头盔是可调节的，头盔的前沿刚好在眉毛的上方，头盔的下方起固定作用的束带扣紧后，头盔的位置恰到好处，而且头盔不能左右滑动。自行车店里的人在调节头盔这方面是最棒的。

WEAR A HELMET WHENEVER YOU RIDE. It’s like a “seat belt” for your brain! 无论任何时候骑车都要戴头盔。对你的头部来讲，头盔就象汽车上的安全带。

ONLY buy helmets meeting the federal government’s CPSC (Consumer Product Safety Commission) standard for impact protection (applies to all helmets manufactured after March 1999). 买的头盔要符合CPSC的标准。（根据1999年3月头盔制造标准颁布的）

Stick a label inside your helmet with your name, address, phone number, etc. on it for identification purposes in an emergency. 把你的名字、地址、联系电话等资料写个标签粘贴在头盔的里面，以备在紧急情况下使用。
