All the gear, most of the time.
Minimum: FFH (flip BMW s5), jacket with armour, decent gloves, bike boots, jeans.
Out of town I always add pants with armour, but in town I wear jeans.
I do subscribe to Ross's theory sort of...it's up to us to avoid the problems, not relying on others to do it right. Unfortunately nature doesn't work that way 100% of the time.
Last year y'all may remember me hitting something in a tunnel, in peak hour, with rupture of the front tyre and lucky not to have hit the deck. Any road you choose may provide a problem to respond to. The possibilities are endless, the responses maybe less so.
In my job, I've seen jaws ground down to bone, knees and elbows shattered, long bones compounded, full rash to the back, brain leaking thru #'s....for me the cause doesn't matter, it's what's possible. It's all risk management in the end. How you choose to do that, is an individual thing.
To think we're in control, all the time is where the decision is often wrong.
