Thank you!
I'm probably heavily influenced by the fact that I live in one of these places (where helmets are a legal requirement).
All I could think while reading this is "yes, you definitely should always wear a helmet!!"

I recall seeing studies showing that helmet-laws generally coincided with low use of bicycles. Places where cycling is extremely common (like Denmark and Holland) never seem to have them, and it's uncommon to see cyclists using them unless they're doing something particularly dangerous (riding in traffic, off-road, etc).
