What do you wear..?

[Snorvey]

I dress for the crash I'll survive

As my old mum says 'put on clean underpants - you might get run over and taken to hospital'

Two wheels, it's never too late to change. We forgive you, but remember the road is a harsh teacher.

  That it is I for got to say it has build in elbow pads. and a harden back side.

[Iahawk]

full face helmet, motorcycle gloves, armored mesh jacket, Sidi motorcycle shoes (kind of like high top tennis shoes) and choice of Dianese long underwear with built in armor or my recently purchased Bohn armor long underwear with built in armor, under jeans. I also have a pair of AGV textile pants with armor and liners if it gets colder.

I'm too old to want to deal with road rash!

To be fair, I imagined it would be nothing apart from denim dungarees and hobnail boots

FF helmet, textile armor jacket, heavy blue jeans, and MC gloves. I need to get a new pair of MC boots.

As I'm hoping to put a few miles on the DT when the warmer weather (eventually) arrives, I thought I'd invest in a new motorcycle jacket.

I didn't want a 'full' jacket and nor do I want anything gaudy (as bike clothing manufacturers tend to make them).

......And it's within budget.

Sorted.

I wish more MC apparel manufacturers would move away from the power ranger look. I like to see a more casual look. Something that can do double duty. To meet the safety needs of the rider yet has that casual about town look.

Here in Vegas I ride my summer mesh jacket and summer gloves with a 3 quarter helmet with a face sheild on it. For the winter I wear my full jacket followed by some heat freeze long johns. I am no fan of full face helmets. I still like have the freedom without feeling cluastophobic. Recently I was in Cycle Gear and I saw this bright yellow full face helmet. I tried it on and it was very comfortable. I did not feel like I needed to get out of it right away. In the next days I am purchasing this helmet. The wind can be brutal here in Vegas.

Years ago, my mate bought a Yamaha racer thing with the full set of flashy gear. He walked into my house, proud as punch at his expensive purchases only to hear my Dad say:

'Hey son, good luck.  I remember the first time I was fired out of a cannon'

That will happen after the advent of rubber roads and nerf cars.....
