Yeah. The whole anti-helmet thing is rather strange. Almost like talking to the wall with those guys. But if they don’t wear a full face even if they get into a “stupid” accident they can wind up with rather serious injuries. Then you have the bird brains that ride with sandals or sneakers. Sheesh. Whatever I suppose.

And motorcycles are REALLY hard to see when you are driving. I can’t figure out why, but sometimes I don’t notice I’m on the rode with one until I almost on them. I wish they had neon tail-lights.

With the holiday there have been some really dumb riders on the road. Yesterday there were two couples (boy/girl on one bike), no helmet, no leathers, no boots. They were trying to ride side-by-side in the lane. The one closest to me was nearly on the yellow line—On the Interstate!

I take that back, there may have been a helmet or two. Lots of hair and clothing streaming in the wind. Those little cotton sun-dresses really don’t protect arms and legs from concrete …
