personally i think the above will be the best for those warm days where you need a bit of air to circulate.

I don't think it'll fit me but I'd try in on ( The one on the right looks nice )  ;)

youve all seen my pictures but if you havent this is the armour i wear...

lol's
no seriously for one moment, most of what i wear i got after a mtb crash (into a parked car, thank you i know)which i broke a rib in..
body armour by brand x

same thing pj sell, with the spine protector, but pj do it £30 cheaper.
knee/shinpads by evs (motorcross)

from ebay but again the pj ones look just as good and are cheaper.
im using pj wrist guards and a generic full face mtb helmet which is up to motorcross saftey standards.
im sure as i get more confident or c*cky a lot of it, MOSTLY the helmet and armour, will come off.
i feel more comfy with the knee pads on, and i seen Jasons fubar'ed wrist.

How long should the Adult Pit-dirt knee-pads be? (in cm's or inches)
Compared to the children's pads.

Mine just came in the post but they seem a bit short as they don't cover all of my shin.
Have I received the wrong ones, or do they just seem short because I'm used to the
length of riot gear?

Everyone's dreams sit aloft a rungless ladder. Some ladders are higher than others. Some are so tall they reach high above the clouds - but everyone can see their dream. Most people see that their ladder has no rungs and although they may talk about climbing it one day, seeing no way to get there, they eventually give up and settle for what lies beneath it.
      The brave however, the wise, the imaginative and the strong of will seek out their missing rungs. They learn all they can about the ladder, they surround themselves with friends and family who would also find the rungs, and failing all else they craft the steps themselves with their own two hands from nothing. Sometimes a rung breaks and the person falls. Some of these people will fall too hard and lose the strength to climb again - Yet they feel comfort in knowing they tried. They became better for it. And they experienced things and witnessed sights upon the climb that those who sat forever beneath it will never know.
      Then there are the special few who find new steps, or fix and climb again the ones that failed. Who eventually, through sheer tenacity and courage come to reach the final rung - Only they will have their dreams fulfilled. The extraordinary then build new ladders. These are the strongest people of all.
