Years ago I rode my motorcycle through Nevada. Stopped in Las Vegas for four or five days (hard to remember). Learned I could ride with no helmet, so I tried it.

Never again.

The wind was ridiculous and a huge distraction. Yeah, I see how some bikers could get used to it, but it still seems like a terrible idea. I don't care if riding helmetless or with one of those tiny brain buckets looks cool. I've been riding bikes for nearly 40 years and I find a full helmet allows me to focus more on the riding and potential dangers.

I always wondered about that. I'd have to believe it would damage your hearing after a while.

Those better be Z87-rated safety glasses.

That car is closer than it appears

I mean if you're a mouth breather and on a motorcycle, I could see the need for a face covering but then again I am neither, so what do I know?

to be fair lots of bikers wear gators due to debris and bugs.... so maybe it's in that vain, but still no concern for a helmet to protect your fucking brain is pretty dumb.

The mask wearing is out of anxiety, embarrassment and bad breath.

Reminds me of that one motorcyle accident that was marked as a COVID related death. Was a couple years ago and dont have a link.

Thats a bug guard. He's still a faggot though.

I know. Why wear that and not a helmet? It's not like your head would split open like a melon in any minor accident or anything, but I'm stupid.
