dont take my horse onto carraigeways, but i wear a helmet at ALL times on the horse, and even when just lunging him etc, but thats because horses are unpredictable animals, can rear up at any time etc, where as a bike wont (although i know with bikes on roads the risk is someone going into you, thats not the point i was making)

Bikes can be just as unpredictable because of the organic bit on top.
Wear a helmet.
It isn't law. They won't pass it as law because then no-one would ride bikes = fat nation and more CO2.

I'm right, you don't legally need to wear a helmet.
