like my uncle did last month at biker's week at the beach. Although I'm sure the odds are in your favor, I think safety is a real concern with those. Seems like I've known of an awful lot of folks hurt or killed on them, but then again a lot of riders do stupid stuff.

The thing that bothers me is that no matter how careful you are, you're at the mercy of other drivers with little protection or chance of coming away from an incident without serious injuries.

Other than that, it's probably a good idea.

note I have to agree.  I rarely meet someone that rides a motorcycle that doesn't have a horrific crash story. Turtle81 New
th_up Chalk me into the negative column too. It's not our riding that puts us at risk, it's their driving... psychicmidget New
note I never had a horrific crash story. But it's true, vulnerability is great. Not to wear a helmet is a no-brainer. <NT> ezwater New
