Took the family to Hawaii, after a day or two I saw only one rider in full gear.

Damn near everyone is wearing sandals, no helmet and riding sportbikes or HD's.

Does it vary by island? What state has more squids?

I have long argued that a full-face helmet can prevent an accident. Ever since I was hit across the visor on the highway by what I think was a sparrow. Would have been a lot worse if it had juat hit me in the face.
