RE: Sportbike Ride Uphill Helmet View
Years ago I ran Formula Ford and the compound on the tires were really soft. They only lasted about three weekends on the road course. Same track also hosted motorcycle racing. I never had the guts to do what they did. Always amazed me when someone came off and slid in the grass 500 feet or so but they just get up and walk away, Of course tracks are pretty safe place to put it on the edge.
Sliding on the grass is certainly easier than asphalt. The leather suits protect you a lot especially with ce armor shields in place to cover the slid spots. Rolling helps so you don't friction abraid the same spot. We have thin under armor tops and bottoms that can be worn under levis and jackets too.
