I agree totally that this incessant meddling has to stop. Let kids be kids.
But I do have to disagree with the helmets in cities thing. A few years ago blasting to happy hour through DC on a balmy friday evening (with my helmet firmly attached to my handlebars) it appears somejackass had tried to steal my front tire during the day..only to loosen the quick release upon seeing the cable lock....needless to say I hit a tall manhole cover at about 30 mph, knocked the front tire off and I flew like a bad superhero over the traffic. Tore my ear 'bout off, concussed the crap outta me and my buddy ran over me as he couldn't stop in time or swerve due to traffic...woke up in the ER with a doc saying..oh yea he'll live...35 stiches in the head another 12 to stick the ear back on....Helmet would've just left me with a ringing headache....
oh yea, feck the spandex...and racer gear...duct taped shoes, cutoff thremal pants and a t are all you need...
