Richard

My brother the birthday boy, sometime in 1978, on his bike. Gosh he was a skinny kid back then. He's posed on Wellington Road, in front of Mom & Dad's house.

That yellow helmet was built by Mountain Safety Research; it was adapted from a climbing helmet MSR sold at the time. Richard's saved his life when he was hit by a drunk driver and landed on the back of his head; when Dick traded it in for a new brain bucket they reported they'd not previously seen a helmet with back-of-the-head damage. Dick's about as hard-line about good helmets as anyone I know....
