Okay, not what i was going for..

What i meant was, womens armour, even though it's designed for women, and once you get all of the other gear on, appears a lot more restrictive that on men, and i really struggle to understand how they can actually ride effectively in it. Especially since all of the women i've seen armoured to the hilt generally ride fairly... *something inoffensive here*

By contrast, the men i know who wear armour invaribly do because they ride hard, and if they do stack it's gonna be gnar. Totally justified.

my guess it would be because their b/f cant get them riding unless they're completely cotton ball wrapped.
but i can see you pain wanting to tell them to ditch 60% as it a) unnecessary and b) actually detrimental. but what can you do???

I can;t tell ya what IS ideal, that's sorta personal... BUT

I can tell you from experience that t-shirts with the sleeves cut off are not ideal! When running DH the wind opens the shirt through the sleeves and becomes the most effect bee catching device I have ever seen personally.

You've not had a truly shtty run until you have taken 4 bees for the ride with you!!!

yeah ive seen some pretty padded up 30-something year olds riding dirt jumps. wearing full faces, knee pads, elbow pads and probably a nappy as well, and im just rocking the piss pot, jeans and a t shirt.

Wow, you so verrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrry gnarly, hating on older riders like that.... that's seriously cool, you know. I calculate that you just gained eight point three Street Cred Points by dissing other peoplez.

HAHAHA great reply to a retarded statement

way to gravedig...btw i was implying that people have different preferences. so they want to have more protection, i really dont care, i didnt meant to disrespect them, as i do respect the local 40+ riders who still dj on the weekends.
