Rational helmet discussion on BBC!
Radio 4's You and Yours offshoot Sliced Bread spent a whole 30 mins on the topic this morning.
https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m001n21k
One of the contributors was Ian Walker who, because the consumer oriented format means the presenter is actually trying to get real answers, was able to expand and explain the issues in a way I've not heard before on any R4 prog.
Worth a listen!

'Sliced Bread'has had quite a few good programmes, including on massage guns (were they a fad?) and outdoor clothing.
I'd add sunscreen and blue light filtering glasses to the good episodes. I keep wondering if I should suggest LTNs and e-cargo bikes (or is that cargo e-bikes)
