I know I am probably wrong, and even possibly stooopid, but for me -
Blundstones and a leather jacket or my Belstaff Trialmaster.
Sounds like a good look, and somewhat protected. But you can do much better in crash, and weather protection. Best protection is not being there. If they're not there, they can't hurt you so run away, of back way off.
I still remember GSPD saying "pretend you're invisible".
I tend to ride like there is a contract on my head.
I don't pretend.....I know
.
BTW I recently had some Email with GSPD. Tried to lure him back, but I think airheads are a subject that he finds redundant. Our loss.

That's not the only downside. There is also looking like a tool while riding your MC wearing blaze orange as if you were a deer hunter or something.
Sorry, that's your
opinion of Hi-Viz. What you
think happens; what you
believe other people see.

Blundstones? Romeo's?
Are you guys serious?
If they don't protect the ankle as much as possible, they should at least not come off easily.
IMO, of course.
But Rob, they're
way kool.

Be careful what you wish for. Roos are blessed with an articulated corkscrew. You can imagine how difficult it must be to negotiate around a lady roo's big fat tail.

Hey Woobly, I've lived with roos for about the last 18 years. The were just a few when we first moved here and now the mob is at about 40. They're often in my front yard and back yard, but mostly in my top paddock.
