Why should you wear a bike helmet?

There is an answer behind every question, whether you want to hear it or not, and there is also the saying " objects in motion stay in motion". Christopher learned this first hand last night as he and his friend Trevor were riding there bikes down the hill, Chris was riding Geoffs BMX bike and the chain came off, so what do you do....put on the brakes of course well, he was riding a bike with no brakes, hit a bump in the rode and launched into the air over the handlebars and as you can see by the photos, face planted it right in the road. So the answer to the question why wear a bike helmet is ...to protect your face and head!

Chris, what a shiner! Hope you learned a valuable lesson. Take care of yourself. Now you have a story to tell at soccer camp! Love you.

Holy Cow! Ouch, well I guess we need to go purchase some helmets. Although I don't think the kids are going to be doing any extreme biking for a while!
Get better soon!
