Re: Oh dear, my village has gained an sv riding chav
I felt naked with everything except bike trousers, I was wearing jeans and it just felt wrong.

Re: Oh dear, my village has gained an sv riding chav
Wayyyyy to hot for full leathers went into town the other day with my leathers on and my lord I for off to meet my mates and within ten minutes I was drowning in sweat an almost passed out....I love you trackies and t shirt.and I have came off in jeans andtrainers still have re scars,but I would rather not pass out sitting in traffic or walking round town. I don't wantrowalk round town when it's 30 degrees in full leathers I would rather jeans and a t shirt and lock the lid to the bike. That way my mates don't get held up by me crawling along behind them.

No matter the weather, you should always wear your leathers. You never know what is around the corner and TBH, it just isn't worth the risk. You could be the safest and most careful rider in the world, but it is the actions of other idiots who could take you out.
Id much rather boil in my leathers than not wear them at all. |

I'd rather have my wits about me than cooking. I wouldn't put leathers & helmet, gloves and boots on to ride a push bike at 30mph to the shops, so why go overboard on a bike ride it's like you're not thinking, not assessing the risk, not riding to the conditions. Just plain stupid in my opinion to put complete trust in your protective gear and be uncomfortable on the bike. (good vented safety gear is a different matter) Last edited by Stu; 30-06-09 at 06:24 PM. |

Re: Oh dear, my village has gained an sv riding chav
As far as I'm concerned it is too hot in London to wear leathers at the moment so I havent been out on my bike. However, why the uproar for everyone to wear leathers even to tootle to the shops when cyclists arent looked at twice when they fly past in lycra. Admittedly not travelling quite as fast but....
EVERYbody was riding round in shorts and tshirts today. I'll be ok, wont I.....
