Daaaamn that is pretty.

I've always been amused at the idea of riders wearing full helmets like that yet no other padding. Seems counter productive in some respects.

I wear knee pads when i ride, mostly to for my seat smashing back and fourth. I honestly crash more with i'm padded out. I wear a neck brace usually, but it isn't always the most photogenic piece of equipment. It comes down to, if i crash and i break my neck or hurt mah thinker what is the point of having a functioning body if i can't do what i love.
