what keeps you safe on the road ? what helmet do you where and what gear?

(i have alittle helmet fetish) and own 6 my everyday one is a airoh rs flip-up and a hjcfg15 will get photos up when im on the laptop

and gear ...alpinestars boots ,hein gericke 2 pc textile and my trusty grey asda hoody over the top ,i have a few pairs of gloves so whatever ones i can find at the time ......next of the list is a back protector so insted of the jacket i can just wear the trousers and the back protector and hoody over the top

NEXT

music while riding who does it ? i do every now and then use it as a sort of back ground noise while on a long trip just normal ipod headphones in my blackberry ....and main point i spose is riding with just one in so no matter how good the song might be the surrounding noices are crisp

ages ago, i saw the pictures of someone who crashed with a flip up.
unfortunately it did its job during the crash... it FLIPPED UP.
God bless the poor guy's face. never even considered flip-ups again ever..
thank God for Shoei. if i wasnt wearing it the day i crashed at 110, half my jaw would be gone.

music while riding? some does that. i am just too chicken to do it. even if its on a soft volume, God knows if i missed a soft horn warning
or yabayaba *insert negative possibility*...

call me pessimistic... i rather play safe. got enuff scars and screws on me alrdy. hahaha

my airoh is nice for summer days short rides (shops ,town ,petrol station etc) a real nice lid

but yeah wouldnt like to crash with the flip on just in case

Fixed

i got a suomy spec r lid, framk thomas 2 piece, frank thomas gloves and sidi vertebras. i also have a 1 piece which i got up the bike show a few years ago. i dont wear it much unless i dont plan on stopping (only for petrol) as its a bit anti-social, and i look like a fat seal. im looking to get some new gear this year over the winter though.

I ride with music on every day, fast music makes ya ride fast
