I guess I just don't understand the mentality is all. Mesh gear isn't any hotter than whatever else you might wear, and if you get the right color it is actually cooler than letting the sun beat down on you. I'm not opposed to taking risks or anything, or I wouldn't own a motorcycle. But a minute to put on some proper gear to save my skin (and some intense pain/recovery) if some idiot cager clips me, or I hit some gravel in a turn just seems like a no-brainer.
BTW, I didn't say I would think she's a moron for wearing jeans as you quoted me saying. I said I'd think she was a moron for wearing shorts and a tank top. Me personally, I never realized how worthless jeans can be for protection until I crashed in them. Editted to add: I've been part of the "online motorcycling community" since 2000 so I've heard all kinds of horror stories about people not wearing gear. The one that sticks out the most though is a member of the ZRXOA who was I guess what you'd probably refer to as a "gear nazi" Well, long story short he decided to not wear his gloves one day, got clipped by an unknown brown truck on the highway and destroyed his hands beyond use. Unable to deal with all the things he couldn't do anymore he actually ended up killing himself and leaving his family behind to grieve. For me its the whole Murphy's Law thing. ________ Coach purses Last edited by Kaneman; 05-09-2011 at 08:52 PM.. |

P.S. You started the debate with your original gear nazi comment. My only point was, "Hey, jeans aren't really that great, look what happened to my leg in a very minor accident with them" ________ Buy Easy Vape Vaporizer Last edited by Kaneman; 05-09-2011 at 08:53 PM.. |

I know it's going to get me in trouble, But I ride the Harley all the time in boots, gloves, jeans and a t-shirt if it's warm. I look at it as I'm not going that much faster most times than I did on my bicycle growing up. On my RSV I wear a leather jacket, gloves, boots and a helmet. IMO gear appropriate for the ride.
