I find that safe gear and safe riding are usually related.

You could go back and read my last post and see it as the positive message it was meant to be, but I doubt you are as interested in that, as you are in trying to figure out some "hidden" meaning to it.

Leon-

You are being intellectually dishonest if by the above you are denying that you were referencing my posts when you wrote:

I just feel that we have some people here that think they need to be the safety officer where none is really needed.

This is a point you've previously made, about me.

Likewise, it was a direct reference to my posts when you wrote.

And saying you don't want to ride with someone based on how they are dressed just sounds stuck up to me.

So you essentially called me a stuck-up safety officer, this is not a 'positive' message.  Yes, that seems like a prick thing to post about someone you've never met.

Slept just fine by the way.

 You can be a prick all you want, Leon.  I'll sleep just fine tonight. .

What kind of sicko are you? Leave that horse's dead ass alone, you pervert.

I'm most concerned about a proper riding shoe/boot, that provides adequate protection and still allow for ease of use concerning the foot controls.
My son and I have looked at some boots, and the seem very confining.

Any advice on foot wear?

get heavy leather boots that go up way past your ankle.  you want something thick that both protects your ankle bones which protrude out nicely when you're skidding along the road, as well as something that prevents too much flexing.  see troy's photo of me (the fj rally photo on page 5 of this thread i think) and look at my ankle.  that's about half as far as it actually bent.  i couldn't figure out the next days why it was so sore, until i got the pics a month or whatever later.  my ankle got cranked pretty hard, but a) it would have left lots of skin on the road without full ankle coverage; and 2) i'm guessing it would have gotten cranked a lot more if i hadn't been wearing stiff boots.

i tend to think that if i'm wearing the gear, i push it harder than when i'm not wearing the gear (no, i don't wear the gear all the time).  but don't believe in that theory, it'll bite you.  it didn't bite me, tho it could have; i had my helmet visor up, because i didn't think i was pushing it that hard going around the corner.  turns out i was, as i ran out of clearance.  i was lucky i didn't grind my chin to the bone and more.  ( :

I think we should get Irishluck involved in this. I am sure he would have something perfound to say!!

Hummmm, a man with a paddle for simple stirring? Or a man with a shit grenade? I know...I have been at this point  and took my chances....

Makes me wonder how hard he felt the spank!!! Some never return, others come back with a bent for vengeance and then get banned for life. It is life repeating it self? So, is it the gentile stirring paddle, or the explosive grenade again? Or lay in wait and snipe? He is not useless, he just needs to find where he is useful. As a Manager of others I try very hard to find where my people fit and fight to put them there. I had a guy that just did not fit and I was considering letting him go. I found him a spot in doing different work with a different supervisor and he is now a valued employee. I take responsibility in knowing that my job is fitting square pegs into square holes. I think some of us club members miss this opportunity to find similar matches. Are we really any different?

Sometimes we really need to just squash the bastard and remove them, I just like to put some real thought before I press the "Smite" button. Can we bring back the "Smite" option? Marsh?
