Saw an HD old school/hot rod looking bike 1 Year ago
|
|
|
scream past my house this morning while I was getting into my truck, and the guy was wearing skid lid, tank top, shorts, flip flops.
Holy cow! Even my 28 year old (non-motorcycle) daughter who was pulling away from the curb re stopped and asked me if I saw what that guy was wearing. She said, guess he's not planning on crashing.
I said, yea, I'd rather sweat then bleed.
So I was wondering, riders that do that kind of stuff (and other dumb things like tailgate, etc) are those the kind of guys who have never been down before?
I know, to each his own, but it just doesn't seem very smart. It's just my opinion.

Riding = Living. We need it. We live because of it. We breath it. It keeps us alive, plain and simple. When we ride at the RIGHT TIME, or with the RIGHT PEOPLE, or to the RIGHT PLACE...we COME ALIVE!

It's crazy but I see it a lot too. I may not wear as much protective gear as I should but shorts and flip flops? Never, Never, Never!

I do it alot making short trips to town or to a friends house or whatever. Shorts, flip flops, t-shirt. It's freaking hot and humid in FL and I ain't gonna put jeans and boots on for a short trip to get something only to come back home and change again. And no I never wear a helmet, never.

Only time I have ever wore shorts was when I was at myrtle beach bike week heading to the pool or the ocean. But flip flops? Would only take one time for a flip flop to flop over and down you go at a light.

I got to admit I never wear protection... skid lid, t-shirt, tennis shoes. I'd wear shorts but I hate getting burned by the pipes.
My safety plan is to not crash... if I do, I do
you only live once might as well make a go of it
