m8 i wont even go the jetwash without leathers on.
spent far too much time sliding on my butt and bouncing off cars and fences etc!
all denim is good for is soaking up blood!
same as you tho, i used to ride in jeans & trainers... and i know what you mean, seems to take longer to heal these days lol - still got sore ribs and thigh from the end of march and that was a relatively low speed off.
i remember the petitions and mass rides when helmets were made compulsory but i wouldnt ride without one myself...
and the way MAG defeated the thatcher govt over us wearing flashing lights on our lids!!!
i think it was karl marx who said, the best government is one that does not govern the people.
re the potholes - some may know it was potholes that wrote my bike off in march... months after the 'bad winter'
for roads to Still be in a bad state is imo totally unacceptable.
councils have had more than enough time to sort this but as usual would rather buy carbon computer chairs for their offices and set up blind lesbian morris dancing clubs, rehouse immigrants etc than real priorities.
makes my piss boil it does.
