I wear a half helmet. A leather jacket in colder weather, and a vest in warmer weather. Sometimes I wear cowboy boots, but mostly just wear runners. No fingerless gloves, just full fingered gloves.

Remember to call sport bike rider in all their leathers "Power Rangers"

Dirt boys ? well I ride one of those too. I just don't know of any insulting phrase for the dirt, or dualsport riders.

After full and careful consideration I feel that if ones half-helmet is DOT approved, then no point value is assigned. Henceforth, only novelty half-helmets should count as a pirate score of "one".

Pfffffttt. Modern day pirates wear 3-pc suits, wingtips, and work for the IRS.

And I don't even OWN a tie.
