So, for Christmas I got a full suite of Armortex, both tops and bottoms. I have resolved myself to never ride again with out this kind of protection even though I feel, and look, like the Michelin man. So, in the morning I pass y the CHP office as I am pulling into mine and being shift change, I noticed that they wear good leather jackets and boot that look great and go to the knee almost. Cold on the night shift one would assume.
However, going home tonight ( this aft really) I saw a group of CHP ( probably riders in training) and all but one was wearing a short sleeve shirt. Now, my Dr always says once you’ve seen what can happen to a biker, you may never ride again”. So, extrapolating on that, I would imagine that the police see some pretty gruesome stuff too, so why on earth would they ride down the freeway in short sleeve shirts when they get issued some pretty nifty stuff. :shock:
Just an observation but it make me think as I ‘bubble” down the freeway.
Thanks for reading my jabber.
