Outside of most big cities: Toronto, New York, Buffalo, .....I find most places are safe. Not all the world is full of crooks and thieves.

As for a cover: for what?? Something extra to carry! Use the bathtowel to wipe...
I agree somewhat with this and what some have said about riding solo. It is often better.
Generally I do not get lonely.
My aproach:

See ya.
Jimmy,
Thanx for the feedback.

It is not the end of the world and they are handmade by humans and things happen plus machines have difficulties at times.
Will monitor obviously. Otherwise very nice gloves.
I was riding over there yesterday while doing a few errands on the way but realized too late that it was too late in the afternoon so I stopped off enroute to visit a friend and here some BS among stuff. Always nice to catch up. haha. Anyways, I never really phoned ahead to see if Jimmy would be...
