Peter, I have read much of the oft-cited literature on helmet wearing.
Statistical artifact/sample selection/health benefits to crashers vs health benefits to more people cycling/nanny staters vs conspiracy theorists and on and on and on. 

Why do motocyclists wear helmets?

In my case I have stacked enough times (once at low speed but very close to hitting the noggin on the edge of a concrete curb) to value helmets highly.. Impact would have been to the left temporal region - thin bone.

I wear a helmet and strongly encourage others to do so.
