Summer Health Series
Wearing a bike helmet can lower the risk of head injury by 40% and the risk of serious head injury by 60%. Before going for a family ride, ensure children are wearing a helmet.
How to check if a helmet fits correctly:
the straps form a “V” below and in front of the earlobes
the front edge of the helmet sits one to two fingers above the eyebrows
the space between the chin and chinstrap is one finger-width
