It's true that I ride my bicycle in spandex, though not at 65+. I'm a lot slower than that

To be fair, a lot of crashes are caused by traffic, which isn't a problem on the trail. And the user-error crashes, well, that's under my control, and my riding style is generally chicken. Falling hurts these days.

I dress better on my road bicycle, where I do deal with traffic, but still in super-chicken-mode. Never trust anybody. It was good training for picking up the motorcycle.
