when i ride a gear up....each and every time....110 degrees outside -10 degrees outside.....im geared up. what i have noticed when i ride a good upper percentile of people dont "get" the logic....why is my helmet so boring (plain white other than reflective stickers on the back) why do i wear an armored high viz vest.... most of all why im wearing "all that heavy gear"....those who have riden responsibly or been down support me... others mock me.
what i have also noticed when i ride is that people see me...thats not enough to make me comfortable though because....well cagers will be cagers... and shit happens.... but i notice that my gear... and the precautions i take every day... are working...like ATGATT...like my choice in gear... and using the highbeam during the day...but what i have noticed to be odd is other bikes dont wave back....??? i have been riding my bike every day that the sun has been out and no rain has poured this/last week... and have only gotten 1 nod and 1 wave....and a few scooters wave by lol.... whats with that?
sorry if this isnt "thread worthy" i and may be repetitive but i thought i would share and didnt exactly know where to put this.... maybe in my blog? :-/ i dont even know to many people that read my blog...
