on 11/22/2005 You should never wear any shoes that have a lace-up closure, as the laces are easily caught on the footpegs, brake pedal and gear shift or other bike parts. Having your shoelace tangled around a brake pedal could prove fatal.

on 11/22/2005 If you can't handle full leathers, try Kevlar jeans - although "real" experienced bikers ALWAYS wear FULL LEATHERS. Once you've seen what happens or have gravel wire-brushed from your skin, you'll do it, too!
