Most cyclists get serious head injuries when they get dinged by cars, of which helmets pretty much offer no protection from, so it is reasonable to not wear a helmet IMO when cycling (except for in rainy/icy conditions where single bicycle accidents are likely).

I don't understand. Did you just say that helmets offer no protection from head injuries?
