The legal liability issue is a real nightmare right now. enforcing a helmet rule will nor save you. I am paranoid to even invite friends on a ride for this reason. Not because i am afraid of them sueing me but their insurance company.

In his original formulation on his website, Phil was a bit more nuanced about this:
In this version, if you're in a group ride where helmets are optional, that's fine. I don't know how many groups there are that do this. Probably no or very few teams. I suspect people riding with friends. |
