You're not having as much fun as me then : )

11 years street riding, around 55k miles, never dumped the bike except in a parking lot.

Anyone else forget to put the kickstand down after a long ride?

Dirt bikes are a different story. Rarely a full day of riding goes by when I don't dump the bike at least once.

This is how I look after getting body slammed by my dirt bike at 35mph.

Broken leg, dislocated ankle, 2 broken ribs and a mild concussion.

25 miles back to camp...

Could I ride?

You betcha. Somebody help me back on the bike!

Oops!

PS.

The first thing my friends do after a crash is take pictures!

It's tradition......

I really want the tiez Mojave mesh suit, but (despite the current sale) it'll have to wait. http://www.teizms.com/mojave-p-3.html?osCsid=o39tf rmjvj0hvhj8j886j74681

I did just get a killer deal on a set of Bohn Adventure gear.

I'm hoping they are quite breathable. I like the idea of not looking like an astronaut, while still being protected. These armored pants are worn under bluejeans.

Mike if I would buy the Mojave mesh suit I would have to buy new bluejeans they seem to be geting smaller all the time.

I recently purchased the Rev'it mistral pants.

They have an inner waterproof liner that is removable and the exterior is mesh with solid inserts on the inside, and CE approved armour.

So far they have been very nice. I can feel the air flowing through then when I remove the liner.

Just picked up my Olympia Airglide jacket and pants. Awesome fit and feel. Good ventilation with shells out. Thanks for all the advice.
