You only get one brain!
Helmets are not designed to save your brain, but these doctors and scientists are trying to change that.

On this month's KBOO Bike Show, we're discovering why helmets may not be as safe as you think, and how a few doctors and scientists are trying hard to change that. 

Our guests are Michael Bottlang, director of the Legacy Research Institute Biomechanics Lab, and orthopedic surgeon Dr. Steve Madey.
