Hello Andrew, nice to meet you.
Always assume all other drivers will do the wrong thing whenever possible, and that every turn and hilltop has a stopped vehicle, or oil slick, or thick layer of grass clippings just out of sight. |

I definitely will wear my gear all the time. The only thing I don't have yet are some good riding pants but they're definitely on my shopping list.
Thank you all very much for the kind words and very helpful advice. |

Reinforced jeans aren't too bad, but when I got a pair of leather track pants on sale, and crashed on them on the supermoto track, I couldn't believe the way it felt like I fell in a pile of feathers. Now I almost always wear the leather pants, even if it's going to look stupid at my destination.
