I wear one all the time now. Ive used my head a s a brake a few times!!
When I was about 15 i was on my way home from a trail doing about 25mph down a tarmac road. I don't have a clue what happened still to this day. My mate behind me told me that my front wheel hit the curb and I went head first into a wooden telegraph pole. I was knocked out for the best part of 20Min's in the middle of the road. woke up with the paramedic trying to cut my coat off, All I was worried about was my bike!
My helmet saved the day and possibly my life, it was proper buggered after that crash!

Anything off road i wear a helmet, although for on road riding I don't, but I should really.
