George, I truly appreciate your concern, but apparently you have not read much of my stuff. I clearly and always state each adult should be free to choose what they want or do not want to wear. I would never rag on riders who wear Ts, jeans, work boots, gym shoes, or ride bare handed (because I do all those things myself) or those who ride with open face, 3/4 , or modular helmets (again because I do) or choose to ride without helmets either, because what they choose to wear while riding is absolutely none of my business. To each their own. That has always been my philosophy and always will be my philosophy. I do not preach safety to anyone, and I don't understand others who feel they have the right/need to preach it to me. Sometimes I wear all the gear. Sometimes I wear very little. Each time, my choice. I will make the decisions that affect me and allow others to make decisions for themselves. Simply put, If they choose poorly, it's on them. If "I" choose poorly, then it's on me.
