Default Why wear proper gear on the streets?

Again, from another board...

Why wear proper gear on the streets?

"because a simple lowside even on a low powered bike at 60 mph..."


"...can be embarrassing in leathers when you sport the assless chaps look...wanna guess what shorts, jeans or dockers would look like?"

"just going for a ride...wave "hi" to mom!"

Fortunately (or unfortunately), that's the last pic in the series, and it's light on the details.

They said that there were relatively low injuries, considering the circumstances. I guess her backpack somehow took the brunt of the fall/slide.
