Default Re: Helmets in the Paddock

Sad to here that one.

It is common during scrutineering for mechanics/ grease monkeys to ride the bikes to and from the bay without helmets (I've done this also) and through the paddock when checking them (but most paddocks have a self enforced 5 mph rule which most stick to)

Makes you think though.
