    MX armour?

    On Td me there are MX armour jackets consisting of full sleeves, elbow, shoulder, chest and back protection. Has anyone tried wearing this sort of stuff on their road bikes?

    I had often thought it could give a good tight fitting protection. Obviously, not under a regular road jacket.

    I did see Henry Cole on one of his shows wearing a similar set up over a tee shirt. Your thoughts?
