Correct answer

  • ASí, siempre.Yes, always.
Explanation

Boots hold the foot and ankle firmly and protect them in a fall, and they also make it easier to work the rear brake and the gear lever, so it is advisable to wear them in every season. In addition, since 1 October 2026 closed footwear covering the whole foot is compulsory on a motorcycle.
