Bicycle helmet folds flat and fits into a laptop case

Morpher is a piece of bike equipment that provides the protection of a standard helmet while also being collapsible for easy storage.

Encouraging the increasing number of cyclists on city roads to wear a helmet is a difficult task — some believe they’re not necessary while others find them uncomfortable and bulky to carry around. Hoping to tackle the last of those issues, Morpher is a piece of bike equipment that provides the protection of a standard helmet while also being collapsible for easy storage.
According to statistics quoted by the UK startup, 92 percent of London’s bike rental scheme users don’t wear a helmet when they ride, but 84 percent believe they’re risky their safety by forgoing such protection. On top of this, 83 percent cite lack of portability as a reason for not wearing one. Having been involved in a bicycle crash himself, Jeff Woolf has since spent two years developing the Morpher alongside designers at therefore.com, the innovative group responsible for 2012′s GravityLight, a lamp powered by gravity. The helmet is made out of recyclable materials and uses a unique folding mechanism that enables it to collapse down to just a couple of inches wide. The design has already met European safety standards, meaning its flexibility doesn’t negatively impact its ability to protect riders. The video below is taken from the Morpher Indiegogo campaign, which saw the invention raise double its funding target:

One Of The Greatest Commercials You Will Ever See

There’s nothing that unifies Canadians more than Hockey. Tim Hortons aired this commercial during the World Junior games and it’s a must see for any Canadian hockey fan! Great job, Timmie’s!

Canada Names Men's Hockey Team for Sochi Olympics

TORONTO — Team Canada has announced its 25-man roster for the Sochi Olympics, and it’s built around key contributors from the team that won gold four years ago in Vancouver.

Sidney Crosby, who scored the game-winning goal over the United States in overtime, is back and likely will be named captain.

Roberto Luongo, who was in net for the completion of the 2010 tournament, could get another chance next month as he’s back on the roster following some tumultuous times.

Jonathan Toews, Ryan Getzlaf, Corey Perry and Patrice Bergeron are also among the Vancouver medallists named to the team.

John Tavares and Carey Price lead the group of newcomers, which also includes the injured Steven Stamkos, who is already skating and would like to return from a broken leg before the start of the Olympics.

Canada beat the United States in overtime to win the gold medal in 2010 when Crosby beat Ryan Miller.
