A almost 50 year old man doesn't want to look uncool on his bike.

Have you noted to him how fucking uncool it is for a grown man to think safety (especially of children) is uncool?

Takes just one slipup of someone, not even them, but just someone in traffic, and he will never forgive himself his shitty attitude.

It's weird. I mountainbike my whole life, i feel super weird not wearing a helmet. I wear a full face helmet on every trail. I ride sometimes on a lift where one of the best riders in europe practices. He wears a helmet from the car to the lift. But somehow he thinks he's too good to wear a helmet. I often see people with child seat on their bicycles and the children wear helmets and the parents don't. Where the hell is the logic there. If you ever drop on your head, your child sits in a puddle of your blood and waits until someone finds them?
