Wear a Helmet
This weekend my friend’s roommate crashed his brakeless fixie and went down on his helmetless head. The Good Samaritan Hospital in Los Angeles put 65 stitches into his forehead alone. Another 20 or so went into his face. Wear a helmet. Brakes are a good idea, too. Don’t be a fashion victim.

This happened during a sprint finish in the 2010 Tour of Switzerland. That’s Mark Cavendish with his wheel folding under him. Video after the jump!
