This week’s Saturday Photo Scavenger Hunt theme is “Comfy.” This is my riding partner Jim getting comfy at Windy Ridge near Mt. St. Helens. Both of us wear full armor while riding. That means jacket, pants, gloves, boots and a full-face helmet. We’re often asked “Don’t you get hot wearing all that?” The answer is that you stay pretty comfortable when you’re at speed, but yes, once you stop you do tend to heat up if the sun is out and the temperate is warm. Jim especially likes to strip down to whatever he’s wearing under the gear. I don’t know if he just tends to be warmer or if he’s a closet exhibitionist.

Your friend, sitting up on that brick wall like that makes me not so comfy, although he doesn’t look fazed at all. What a spectacular view!

Neat shot

That does not seem “comfy” to me, but sure looks safe!
I played too!

That big machine looks threadful to me, not confy at all, lol, look at my cats they are “confy”.

Nice to hear you both wear all the gear, there’s far too many joy boys around today that think it’ll never happen to them. Great pic, superb view.. and not just Jim lol
Mines up!

I guess he looks comfy???!!! *smile* Have a great weekend!

My vote would be that he may be a closet exhibitionist. Just kidding, he does look like he is comfy as he is taking a breather from full gear. Great backdrop by the way.

I wear all the gear, with armor, all the time. On pleasant days I even forget I’m wearing it all, because it’s “quite comfy.”
September 30 @ 8:55 am
Haha, that’s a great picture. (And I LOVE Mt. St. Helens!)
Mine’s up!

It is great when people wear all the armor. I saw an idiot wearing flipflops the other day….helmet,jeans,flipflops.

what a great shot and take on the theme…I joined in too this week
September 30 @ 12:35 pm
Uhhhhhh yea! I’m with Jim! I’m NO exhibitionist, but leathers and summer just DON’T go together! I’d be down the bare essentials too! (as a matter of fact, I prefer to ignore the safety features…. but I don’t ride too often - or too far!)

Very cool photo!
Have a good weekend!

Love the picture. Very nice. As someone else said, with my fear of heights, sitting on the wall with that behind him makes me uncomfortable. Love the view however.
October 2 @ 5:32 am
nice boots! I’m so glad you explained the getup, or I would have thought he just liked to wear big boots with shorts. LOL
