IMPACT VESTS You know the drill, don’t be a clown, wear a vest. Official guidelines on this subject are somewhat skewed here in NZ. With an official hat on, we shoul d probably say always wear a Coast Guard Approved (CGA/ASA vest) but in NZ there’s nothing to stop you riding in a more comfy, thinner vest. But remember the same is not true if you plan on hopping the ditch to Aussie. We’ve marked ASA vests to make it easy. Image: Jamie Barrow By Luke Thomas
