No shame in wearing protective gear. At least a helmet provides enough critical protection. I wear a helmet and gloves and am willing to accept scrapes and potential broken bones. With the helmet, I figure if I'm falling, I'm probably going to smack my face on something given the upright position, so I went with a full face helmet. It still kind of feels like overkill, but I honestly don't care because I know my face is protected and I won't have to worry about potential dental work, which I'm pretty sure everyone hates. For the gloves, it's more of avoiding being annoyed should I get scrapes on my hands from breaking a fall.
Recently, we had a hit and run on a kid obeying all the rules of the road. The driver turned left into oncoming traffic (bicyclist) and the kid wasn't wearing a helmet. Last I read he was in bad condition in the hospital and he didn't do anything wrong from witness accounts.
