No wonder insurance companies are behind the no helmet laws.And folks waiting for organ donations.
I rode from Birmingham, Alabama to Jupiter, Florida two weeks ago. I felt like an alien riding through Daytona Beach on Route 1. I am ATGATT on a KLR650 -- full face helmet, armored mesh jacket and pants, boots, and gloves. Temp was over ninety degrees (water soaked cooling vest worked). The Harley riders with no helmets, shorts, t-shirts, and loafers wouldn't even wave back to me. Seemed to me that in Florida riders with helmets always waved back but half or less of the no-helmet folks. Here in Alabama (helmets required -- can you believe it??), all motorcyclists wave back.
