Gotta love that attitude....
Bikes are about freedom of choice I reckon, every individuals got a right to choose what they wear to ride, it's their life, their skin, their choice.
I ride more and more these days in a piss pot, to me for the pleasure I get from feeling the elements on my face on a warm day it's worlds better than being cocooned in a full face
True.
Apart from those who have to help clear up the mess if it goes wrong, or passersby/witnesses who may well be children.
So don't be naive enough to think it is only going to affect you.

If thats the case then why aren't smokers made responsible for the trauma of putting their family why they die of cancer? If I crash its my own stupid fault and don't ask any help from anyone. I have ridden (and crashed) in jeans and hoodie before and I still do it because its MY CHOICE. BTW just ridden home from work in jeans, trainers, hoody, MX gloves, & my lid at high speed on one of the busiest dual carriageways in the country.... Still breathing and intact
