Soooo ..... what were peoples thoughts on the program??
They simulated hot riding by the subject wearing his protective gear under a heat lamp riding an exercise bike. He lost 1.5 litres of sweat in the 20 (?) minutes and "hit the wall". They tested his reactions which were compromised by the workout. I'd question the validity of the exercise bike equating to the exertion required to ride a m/c.
Denim, nylon and kevlar were tested on a sanding band which rated the kevlar as good for 6 seconds at 28 kph. The nylon lasted 0 seconds and the denim 2 from memory.
They didn't test armour, which surprised me. I expected a greater emphasis on the clothing's protective ability, rather than most of the time spent on heat fatigue.
Overall- not very helpful, although it did prove the bleeding obvious.
