Why You Really Really Need Atgatt

preachy!! You dont have to or need to tell people to wear bike gear its there choice. Each to there own, i do wear my gear 90% of the time as it will save me, but going to the shop i wouldnt put full leathers on ever, its like saying do you wear full leathers to get the buss as theres just as much chance of being hit by a car asoon as you get off it.

I don't need to or have to but I can and it's a topic open for discussion lol I'm not saying they must/have to anyhow I'm just pointing out how it's the clever thing to do. This might be a good topic for a vlog actually!

But yeah, your bus analogy is wrong because gear isn't designed to stop you getting hurt when you hit hard immovable objects or when you're crushed I.e. in a car/hit by a car. So having said that, it'd be irrational to wear gear inside a vehicle like a car or bus or for protection against those vehicles hitting you. Gear covers you for where road rash is your #1 concern.

I wear full leathers everywhere because if it's not far enough to warrant riding, then it's short enough to warrant walking/cycling.
