It came in steps...first I got tired of changing shoes and putting all that gear on just to ride around the congested metroplex. Then I got more and more paranoid that everyone around me was on Facebook. Which wasn't really paranoia, all you have to do is look through a few driver windows to see a huge percentage of people are on their phones while they're driving.

Everyone here knows the pros of riding, but here are the cons that did me in...
- Gear is inconvenient

Get an Aerostich Roadcrafter II

- Speeding tickets suck

Don't speed (or don't get caught)

- Riding in DFW sucks

You have obviously never ridden in Toronto

- Drivers suck

No argument

- Death sucks

Haven't tried it yet, so I can't really comment

- Riding got to be boring.

Boring? With bad drivers and death? Sounds more like a sport....
