If you’re not happy working with ladders then you might want to consider getting a roofer in to carry out the work on your roof….it can be long way down with an unforgiving landing
From bitter experience I can say that while body armour won’t prevent broken collar bone it will certainly reduce the severity of the injury (for a direct impact)
Not sure that you need an IDP to hire a car in Canada. I hired a car a couple of years ago in Vancouver and they were happy with my UK driving licence….
Been running a 29er 2.35 Magic Mary and 2.3 Minion DHF on 30mm internal rims for since early March….works a treat.
Also able to run them a few psi less than when they were on my old mk2 flows!
Been wearing knee pads for mtb (XC, enduro, DH) on every ride for past 6 years and arm pads for past 4 years – now just part of routine kit for riding.
I’ve been using the Bell Super 2R MIPS since February ’15.
Very comfortable and good fit…well, it fits my head just fine! :)
The removable chin guard is great.
Yep, elbow & knee pads every time I go off-road and also shoulder protection for the past 12 months since I busted my shoulder – I don’t really see it as being any different to wearing a lid!
