When did all the scooter kids get big bikes...?
 

Spent a couple of hours on the bike this afternoon... (beeyuddaful weather for riding) and passed 3 numpty's at various locations wearing t-shirts, trainers.. and no gloves. One bloke was even wearing some lame canvas shoes and a track suit!!

Now I'd expect this of scooter kids... but one was riding a Zed, and another an FZ6... nice bikes.

Put some gear on guys!!:rolleyes:

Yep, the sun seems to have melted everyones brains!!

Today i've seen riders with no gloves, shorts, t shirts, trainers and yes, all on big bikes.

I agree with all the gear all the time but we will go round in circles cos you must respect that everyone has freedom of choice.

I rode to the petrol station today 0.4 km down the road in jeans and a hoodie, I didnt go over 30mph and I sure as hell not fully kitting up for that short trip. Gloves helmet and boot for me.

Each to their own, If I'm going for a long hoon then its leathers.

It's their skin, sod them if they want to blend it with tarmac.

I was out today in a Held textile jacket and a pair of normal jeans with Daytona bike boots - it was a nice bright day and I wanted to ride slow and just take in the atmosphere. wearing slightly inappropriate kit slows me down.
