No helmet. Hands off the handlebars. Listening to music on your IPod. Looking around from time to time to see who’s checking out your super-awesomeness.

Your douchey-looking hairdo isn’t going to protect your brain when you get hit by a car you didn’t hear coming, or you fall off your bike into the traffic lane with your hands still posed oh-so-casually behind your back.

  1. Hahaha I still like this dude better than the dudes who wear neon spandex with logos like they’re sponsored bike professionals. Oh, and those pointy aerodynamic helmets that are gonna shave a few seconds off of their commute. Talk about people taking themselves too seriously.

  2. Why do you care that he isn’t wearing a helmet? Don’t look at him if you don’t like it, I, Anon. Jebus! Get over yourself!

  4. Uh, actually the dude is protected by all of the mold inside his dreads. Works better than a helmet!*

    *may not actually be true

  5. i also must ask why the f**k should you care if someone is wearing a helmet or not…especially if you don’t know them. so what if he actually crashes his bike and floats off the rainbow gathering in the sky? how does that effect you? mind your own damn business.

  6. I always find it interesting when someone mentions mold inside of dreadlocks. I have friends and Family members with dreadlocks and they’re not the least bit moldy. If you know someone who has dreadlocks and they’re moldy inside, this person shouldn’t have dreads because he/she doesn’t know how to keep them clean and dry. Usually when I hear someone refer to dreads as moldy or dirty, it’s just some idiot who knows nothing about them though….
    It’s amazing how pathetic an uninformed bigmouth looks when he/she opens his/her mouth.

  7. Well, according to a previous I, anonymous they are full of mold. So who looks uninformed now, person that can’t detect sarcasm?

  8. Maybe I was looking around to make sure I wasn’t going to be hit by a car. I’m glad to see someone sees me enjoying the hell out of my bike ride and thinks it’s “Super Awesome” even if it makes them angry.
