I see people wearing bright colored clothing while riding. I don't wear it but people do. Maybe not in certain hipster areas though :))

Took the survey. Good luck. I wish I got to study this kinda stuff when I was in school.

I think I would take the broken arm over elbow pads.

I did two or three times this winter, only on the worst days.

Wow, I really did not think that would be a thing.

Shows how completely wrong I am.

I have a Gortex enduro motorcycle jacket with semi-flexible internal elbow and shoulder pads and decided that it'd be a wise choice on those crazy days we had this winter. Seemed like i was reading a lot of reports of people going down on the chainlink, so i figured it was a good idea. The jacket looks pretty much like a cordura cycling jacket with vents and reflective elements, you can't even tell it's armored. 

I never went down, but I if I have the gear, I might as well use it...

I know a few people who fell and broke stuff this season.

OK, see that makes tons of sense to me; in my head I was envisioning people wearing skate style elbow pads...

It doesn't have padded elbows but I wear the leather jacket I purchased for motorcycle riding in the winter on the bike a lot myself.
