In the last week I have read some of the most shocking threads I've ever seen. All concerning safety equipment. I want to state out right that I'am not innocent in this controversy. I had a crash last year and wasn't wearing my Tek Vest......I admitted wrong and accepted my punishment . Some of you posted openly of my wrong{SBR} and others did it with pm's.....the fact was everyone had a right to reinforce the stupidity of my mistake. A mistake I didn't not defend . I was wrong and for the betterment of the sport, I hope others see How wrong I was. I lived, others dont!!!!.
So here is my beef and I expect this to be deleted, but here goes.
Some posts have been deleted that showed a real lack of respect for LIFE. Yes we can sweep it under the carpet and carry on or we can address the real issue. Just because you delete it here doesn't mean the BAD Example is not out there being a glowwing example of wrong. If you really care about fellow riders, especially young NEW riders......lets deal with it.. I donot feel Protecting a friend or Sponsor in this issue is admireable...in FACT I consider it Shamefull.....Stop running from the issue everybody...WE have a Problem and we need to deal with it NOW. We have a responsility to teach the young ones the RIGHT WAY.By deleting sensitive and important issues you are in fact compounding the problem....MAN UP EVERYBODY unless YOU ENJOY FUNERALS.
Same as saving up to buy the equipment......You cant do this azz back wards. If you dont have the equipment sorry sunshine you shouldn't be riding.
And Yes some people will never learn and some cant be taught........but for the fresh open minds of our youngins..we Must set a good example ...and also debate why SAFETY Equipment is a MUST. Other wise we are the problem not the solution.
I should also add the hardest part of DEATH is left for the living to DEAL with.
