it looked like a well dressed kid for going on a bike as the top half is the right gear butt the bottm half it not becosue of the chaps and crappy gloves and i think its trainers . to think the time it took to put on pointless chaps you could of put on proper leather bottoms and proper gloves.

My wife actually has one of those. I guess it is supposed to keep you hair from tangling in the wind.

One day after giving me a speeding ticket I had noticed the local moto cop didn't have a stitch of safety gear on so I said...
"you should get the town to buy you some protective gear."

His reply...
"I don't go that Fast."

You can't argue with stupid.

They would have more gear, if they did not spend all of their clothing allowance on GoGo Boots!

Helps keep her hair from getting that ratty biker hag look. Hair tied with a scrunchie or rubber band, flapping around in the wind can get cut. Happened to a friend after a couple rides and she cried like a baby.

Unclear on this.... cut by the leather thingy or by the scrunchy/rubber band thingy? Girfriend has long hair and we usually braid and scrunchy it before a ride. Hate for her to lose it.
/thread jack, more pics please!!!
