I ride dirtbikes and ski regularly. I wear all the protective gear and am satisfied with the risk/adrenaline profile. I am often looked at as an adventurous risk taker, but I think people often underestimate other risky activities which impart nowhere near as much adrenaline. Case in point, I was in Thailand last winter. Tourists who otherwise aren't adventurous ride scooters freely because everyone in Thailand does. They ride scooters wearing flip flops without a helmet. The worst was when I was at a bar with an otherwise boring couple, we wanted to go to another bar so they suggested that I get on the back of their scooter, all three of us. They weren't hammered but had been drinking and had little overall two wheel experience. Riding on a scooter in the first place isn't particularly fun, riding with two other people on a scooter is downright dangerous, why risk it. I hired a tuktuk.
