      Always wear a helmet when riding a bike #BikeMonth #bikenyc #bikedc #ThursdayThoughtspic.twitter.com/nCArbel4bu

      A photo of two parents riding away on their children's bikes while the kids chase them in the distance. Neither parent is wearing a helmet. The text reads: Just because you're escaping from your children, doesn't mean you sacrifice safety. Always wear a helmet when riding your bike.

      Before we share our other helmet safety message (an encore posting of The Great Helmet flying over San Francisco) we did want to share a few resources.

      The portal to our National Electronic Injury Surveillance System. You can download a spreadsheet of injury data ("Archived Annual NEISS Data") and search for bike injuries that mention helmets. We have data from 1998 to 2017:https://www.cpsc.gov/cgibin/NEISSQuery/home.aspx …

          How many of them would have been more improved by increased helmet usage, over better cycling infrastructure or motorist education?
