[QUOTE="rmc_olderthandirt, post: 1229826, member: 68872"] I receommend getting the bulk of it up front, the "bulk" being what everyone is saying is the basic. I didn't do that, I got it once piece at a time. Started with the helmet, obviously. Tried using sun glasses to protect the eyes, didn't work. The first time I twisted/mangled a foot I quit riding in tennis shoes. It wasn't long before I got tired of ending a ride with bleeding knuckles so I got a decent pair of gloves. I actually started using the chest protector before I needed it. It has some pretty nasty scrapes on it now, so I am sure it has done its job quite well. The pants were added to be stylish but I am sure that they have helped out some. If nothing else they hold up a lot better than Levis do. The blood seems to wash out of them a lot easier as well. The knee pads I added after a rather spectacular trip over the handlebars into some really nasty rocks. I might have been able to walk the next day if I had the knee pads before that crash.
