Proper gear is a must!! I agree whole heartedly. Unfortunately part of my job is scraping up people that wreck on the Parkway. It is amazing the difference in injuries of people who wear gear vs people who don't in the same kind of crashes. Seeing some of these people really made me want to wear the right gear!
