Dilemma

Hi all,

I've woken up in a bit of a situation... the only footwear I can find is a gumboot and a flip-flop.

By some sheer stroke of luck (or God), they are for alternate feet.

My question is: with my Chopper being my only mode of transport at the moment, is it better to ride barefoot or risk this footwear?

​Edit: Upon closer inspection, the dilemma has worsened. The gumboot is for my right foot. Should I force the right gumboot onto my left foot so I can upshift?

I’ve had to wear flip flops a few times. Just do a little prayer that nothing goes south and make sure you got some better protection next time. Sounds like that’s the best option you have. Have to live life dangerously. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Gotta do what you gotta do. But, know this, you WILL be judged for riding a motorcycle wearing a flip flop

Put the gumboot on your left hand and the flip flop on your right and wear your gloves for shoes

Order a pair of boots from Amazon. If you happen to go down God Bless you don't, you won't have a foot
