Soldato
FWIW, i've come of a scooter twice before, once on a roundabout in the rain, and another time i went straight over a fence, both times i was wearing my protective clothes and helmet, both times it never hurt one little bit, the second time i came off at about 30mph too. It never knocked my confidence either, infact it more assured me that protective clothing really does work Just because it can do 50mph, doesn't mean you have to do 50mph, just take it easy at first till you grow in confidence, and you will grow in confidence if you give it a chance.
