I spent decades riding and racing bicycles both on the road and velodrome, I don’t care what you think your self preservation abilities or instincts are at any speed fast enough where a helmet is going to save you, you are not fast enough/good enough/skilled enough to keep from landing on your head if that is the direction you are going. I am 100% convinced had I not had one on at a race I would be a goner or a veggie - going about 35mph the already narrow European road got abruptly smaller with a tall curb to a sidewalk. I went down hard and head first, helmet as designed split into multiple segments. - Wear a helmet!
