Motorcycle riders in here?

How many are all the gear all the time?

I was, then one day I said screw it, I'm just riding around the neighborhood. Woke up a couple days later in the hospital... Not sure what exactly happened, just glad my roommate found me on the pavement at 1am or I'd not be here.

Out for a brief ride today and I'm quite soggy already. I say it every year, but since our hot season tends to be only a couple weeks, I never follow through. I need some warm weather riding gear.

Around town, shorts and flip flops.

On a trip, full get up.

I gear up all the time. Is it a pain?

Yes

But car drivers as a rule are idiots, and I refuse to take the risk.

I don't always wear full leathers. Foul weather yes. But boots jeans helmet eye protection are required.

Boots, gloves and helmet always. Roadcrafter suit when weather permits, but man is it hot, so I'll admit some days it's just a long sleeve t-shirt.

Run you over or off the road while wearing whatever I damn well please while reaching back to my crazy kids to change their movie so I don't have to hear them yell and kick my seat. And when they are asleep in the car and hear your reved up lawn mowers next to them and they wake up asking if that's a bike and I have to say "yes" then the next time we walk by a bike and they ask if they can get on it I'm going to say "yes" then too. You need to catch some air? Go outside in a windstorm. Need a thrill? Ride a roller coaster. Need something vibrating and roaring between your legs? Ask your wife to ride her toys. Need a bike to feel tough? Put a baseball card in the spokes. Need a bike to get laid? Get a motorcycle. Enjoy you rebel you!

Um. What?

Sounds like you're part of the problem

You'd like your kids to trespass on my property? Have fun with that one.

Willfully run me off the road or run me over? Hope you enjoy murder, or at least a manslaughter charge.

I truly hope this was said in jest. It's not funny.

I've been hit twice by jackholes not paying attention. I don't take this lightly.

If serious, just GFY

What what?

My kids will either sit on your bike now or steal it later.

Murder? Manslaughter? I'd be the guy that hits, runs, and takes my car to my pal to get it fixed. Don't worry, I'll send a care package!

Said in jest? Do I look funny to you? Do you think I'm a clown? Do I look like a joke to you or something?

I've been in 13 car accidents an I don't give a chit when someone plays bumper cars or drives like a fool.

If you want me to GFM I will. I certainly don't see how that helps our situation.
