Im curious if that's consider to be a helmet, or a satellite dish for his GPS
I expect that image will be used in every helmet debate going forward, as it don't look safe - In fact it's so bizzare looking that it took me ten minutes to notice the fella is also practically naked other than for his short shorts and back pack... Sod coming off with a wok on my head and no other protection, he's not even got gloves.

I think he has a helmet underneath t he gourd or whatever it is.

fatbikes as you know, do away with the suspension as the big tyres absorb the shock and are very good on loose surface such as beaches but really bad anywhere else due to drag, look quite mental too.

Looks like he's squashed a skunk under his front wheel, poor bugger.
