www.healthyyards.org is the link in the image. I'm not affiliated with it in any way, I just hate when people put links in images and you can't click on them. Almost as bad as texting someone a QR code. Motherfucker, what am I supposed to do with that, get another phone to scan it?

Screenshot, share to binary eye, done 🥳
Kind of amazing that people still need to be convinced to wear helmets while riding.
You'd have a hard time convincing me to ride without one.
Same, but it's actually a charity I started recently to fundraise to buy bikes (and helmets) for teenagers who sign up for a cycling club at local high schools! There's a bunch of kids who are interested in the club but can't afford their own bike. Cycling is pitifully rare here in the US so I'm hoping to improve that in a small way 🙏
In that case, masterful self plug.
Where are you located in the US? I think I have a few unused bikes.
Thanks! South Carolina - details on https://helmetheads.club/ if you're actually interested in supporting, anything is appreciated!
Thanks! Unfortunately I'm pretty far from SC, but I'll see if I can contribute anything via the website.
This is very context related. As an example, in the Netherlands almost no one wears a helmet while riding a bike and the cyclist union discourages the government from any legislation requiring people to do so.
Cycling is so safe, you really don't need one (unless you think you should also wear one walking down the street). The cyclist union's argument is that if you force people to wear a helmet, fewer people would cycle, more would drive a car and in the end more people would end up getting hit by a car.
That being said, I would 1000% wear a helmet in most other countries.

FWIW I know on iPhones if you tap and hold on a QR code in an image, it should give you the option to open the link.
I’d be surprised if Android doesn’t have a similar behaviour available?
But.. they're sharing an image? Where else would you like it to go, in the EXIF metadata?
Like in a radio advert, you just remember the URL and type it in!
