He was in his car at the time, not on his bike.
I like bikes
Yes. And arrogant with it. Just ask Jim2 about cyclists

Ummm Ok I know that. Can't see the relevance though...
If anything he should have been even safer on a short trip to the shops in his car than if he was on a bike.
The point I was trying to make is that many accidents happen on short trips just such as those the proponents use to justify their use of minimal safety gear.
The Hurt report sums it up:
"Most motorcycle accidents involve a short trip associated with shopping, errands, friends, entertainment or recreation, and the accident is likely to happen in a very short time close to the trip origin."

Try this.
No one has to justify jack shit to you.
In fact.
I went out in my T-Shirt this arvo.
And let rip.
Got a problem with that?
Fuck you.
One hell of a ride.
Thats because of increased frequency of those Journeys - there are 10,000 more riders going to the shop and visiting friends than there are on a grand tour. That's just the mode - not an assessment of the risk.
That same set of statistics would therefore show that speeding on the open road is far safer than doing 50 to the shop.

You talk about personal choice...well I have a choice not to do it cause if you do crash , youll make a mess outta yourself....but wait a minute it only affects you if you do that right, theres not the ambos police or fireys that come picks you up = Tax payers dollars(mine ,yours, everyones else that work), then theres the hospital stay = more tax payers dollars, then your recovery= more tax payers dollars, oh what about the acc levy that goes up a little = more dollars each year out of our pockets, so yeah you have a choice, do whats right or be a selfish prick and do something just cause you can!.
Yeah I guess you can call it a choice.
Aint gonna worry me any..

I have. When you are riding like that on public roads, it is going to be public money that will be paying for all of your skin grafts and recovery time in hospital.

On one hand we have the 50+ hard asses complaining that "the young people of today have no balls - get off my lawn you whippersnapper", and on the other we've got every PC, conformist Labour voter kicking anyone who shows any balls right in them. So to speak.
My wife had to change the dressings on a bloke last night whose gear had ridden up in a comparatively low speed accident. After years of living with one of those motorcycling idiots she suggested that he might want to look at better fitting gear, where the other Nurse rostered on asked him the normal medico/firebum/poolice question; "So, are you going to get on a bike again?"
He said, "People get married again you know."
Good on him.
Some of you motorcyclists are too wantonly oblivious to understand motorcycling.
Why do we ride? Because we want to. Because it makes your brain release endorphins and dopamine. Because it makes you free. You can break the law a little bit, risk your life a little bit, drag your toe sliders, your knee, your footpeg, your sorry arse around corners both piffling and glorious and you get to spend time talking about it with other sausage beast junkies.
You all have a Skidmark inside you (or your undies), or you wouldn't be on a bike. Skidmark doesn't like to be lectured, and that's when he can be bothered noticing he's being lectured.
You've all had so many years being conditioned to "safety" that you've bought into the propaganda "wholus bolus".
It's pointless to lecture a motorcyclist about safety.
Try talking about comfort. Try talking about being dry when it rains. Try explaining how a one piece leather race suit with a hump will help get a late model GSXR750 to read 299 km/hr on the speedo.
That shit works.
But tell him he needs to be safer and the Skidmark just pulls a wheelie, then a stoppie, then a feet up u-turn without checking behind and kicks your stinking mirror off.
If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?

Well then, I suggest the next time you see me, You flag me down, and explain what parts of my life are too dangerous for your liking and have to be stopped, after all, Public money is at stake.
At which time, I'll tell ya to get fucked.
Deal?
Fuck sake, By that logic, Bikes should be banned.
