Importance of wearing protection

Hey guys,
I just wanted to express the fact on how important it is to be riding with all the proper safety gear.
I have always worn protection while riding(in both ways...hehehe..jks) but have always feared the fact of coming off the bike.
Well unfortunately I came off my bike the other day hitting into a car and rolling over the bonnet, just like the movies. Luckily I had my riding gear on and escaped with a bruised foot and knee.

LIVE LONG & RIDE STRONG

The importance of wearing protection...yeah, right.

Let this be a warning to all of you because I forgot to wear it three times

Never did forgive them for sitting on the GPX before I did

...and they are shit-loads larger now
