And that is where I do all my riding now, sunny SW Florida just a 12 miles SE of KPGD and 2.25 miles N of 94FL

The number of fatal motorcycle accidents reported on the news daily here would make you reconsider riding around here

Just about all my riding jackets are black or grey. But I now wear a high viz vest over the jacket, similar in color to the above. I want to be seen. Have known too many riders who had accidents by car drivers who "didn't see him". So I would have no problem wearing that jacket.
