ROMP advocates helmet use and insurance. Riding without protective gear and personal insurance is not responsible. This underlines the importance of peripheral practical topics that ROMP will be investigating this year: Health Insurance and dealing with injuries.
The fundraising event described above is not a ROMP event.
