'Then' and 'than' are completely different words and have completely different meanings. Same with 'of' and 'have'. Set and sit. There, their and they're. Draw and drawer. Could care less/couldn't care less. Bought/brought FFS.

WOW....Every day I see people riding with a full face helmet, shorts, tennis shoes and t -shirt or halter tops.  I see the passengers trying to stay on that little pad or laying on top of the driver.  Unreal.  :o

Same here in France ! Summer is time to be cool looking, not sensible. I had some twat laugh at me as I arrived at the beach on my Blade, suitably attired. He thought it was funny me all dressed up like that. I asked him "Ou se trouve le magasin du peau ?"  (Where do you find the skin shop), his mates thought that was funny and laughed at him.
Honestly, I am shocked to see the risks some people take. Like jumpin out of a plane without a parachute saying "it'll be OK, so far so good".

oof. The kneecaps thing was the most disturbing for me. I really need to get some decent riding pants.
