If you miss the wind in your hair or you're sick of paying $176 for the privilege of riding without a helmet. There is a day coming up for you to voice your opinion and hear some non emotional expert opinion on the subject.
Maybe you're HatHair phobic or possibly you just don't agree with the studies supporting the effectiveness of the scone protector or hey, god forbid you just advocate adults making informed decisions for themselves?
Whatever the reason, come along to CERES on Sat 6th Oct at 1pm to hear the speakers and then join the Freestyle Cyclists and their supporters in an act of civil disobedience as they ride down the Merri Creek trail (Helmet Free!).
I don't advocate no helmets but I do support freedom of choice and it's pretty plain that the 'Bike Share' in the Melbourne CBD and inner suburbs is being stunted by these laws, so maybe it's time to come up with something that is a bit smarter and reflects our evolution as an urban culture?
if you want to support the group's push, pre-ride, there is a petition to sign
