Terrible. And the poster on Tilford's site buried the lead: he wasn't wearing a helmet.

He has a long recovery ahead of him and he'll have no choice but wear a helmet in the future. I hope he makes a full recovery.

Hope he's OK... no helmet...

Google 'frontal lobe syndrome'.

I won't say a word more.

Jesus Christ some people. Like no one ever got a head injury while wearing a helmet.

Oh boy, I'm sure you didn't mean that. I'm gonna go easy on you because there are times I think the same thing but you know with all that's going on around us...life is so fragile.

To put the entire quote about the helmet from the Tilford blog post...

Point of acknowledgment: My wife is making me say this, I do what she says 😉 Steve was not wearing a helmet. He may be pissed at us for posting this when he’s all better, but seriously, wear your helmets. We don’t know if it will change his decisions in the future, but please let it change yours. And please don’t focus on this point in the comments. Could’ve, would’ve, should’ve, but we just want Steve and Bill better

As he says, the focus is on wishing these well.

Always appreciate ST's take on things. Hope the recovery goes well.

True statement, but not the appropriate time to post it. Cold, man.

Out of the loop-pal.

Hope he makes a full recovery.

However, do not even think of showing up to any of my group rides, Weeknight Worlds, etc without a helmet. I will not tolerate that in the group. It's not fair to the rest of us. Want to ride without a helmet? Do so on your own.

Heal up fully, Steve.
