(Graphic image) Tennis shoes are great for riding, just not for coming off!

poor form - I am all for NSFW threads - but I make sure no one is watching my screen when I click on them.....

Whilst it something I'd perhaps have rather not seen, just what did you expect when you read the title? Seemed obvious it was going to be a not nice pic of an off with tennis shoes.

Can only hope that by people seeing that for what it is, results in at least someone changing their ways and using good gear, even if they are just going down tot he local shop.

Holy shit! That's exactly what I said when I saw this. It did say graphic image though. I just wasn't expecting that. I always wear boots, gear lever catches my toe and pisses me off so I have to wear boots which is a good thing.

Nothing changes. I saw pictures like this 30+ years ago in medical journals from riders wearing Jandals, sneakers and bare feet. It was one of the reasons that my old man was dead set against me getting a motorbike

The worst ones are usually the flip flop riders from Brazil, or other poor countries where the climate is hot and small, air cooled motorbikes rule the streets. Now those videos are a perfect example of why ATGATT is so important, even more so than this one!

I'm not sorry i posted it, without the warning, the title was pretty self explanatory.
This is the aftermath of someone thinking it was OK to ride in sneakers and finding out the hard way it isn't.

If it makes you think about it next time you ride, good it had the intended out come.

pffft, couple of plasters and some iodine and she'll be right =)

on a tangential but related note - I get really fucked off by bikers I see riding around in Shorts, Tshirts, no Gloves, Helmet but casual shoes etc. etc.

To me its fucking irresponsible - am I alone in my mental condemnation of these twats?

Here we go.

Prediction? Two more pages before we are talking lesbians.

Nah I think it stupid too. But then again its their skin and choice. I'm always for ATGATT because I'd rather be protected the best I can should the worst happen, I make that choice each time I put on my gear its common sense really, I'd rather have the skin on my ass stay there and not have to have it grafted onto my face.

I make the choice to wear the gear. Just like the ones riding in shorts and stuff make their choice when they just jump on and ride.
