What Saint to ask for protection?
Ok, I know this is an odd question for you Catholics and lapsed Catholics, but what Saint - and thus the medal you would wear - would you ask for their protection while you ride? Just interested in people's take on this.

Not a Catholic here, but just to say... it's OK for you to go straight to Jesus for whatever help/protection you are seeking.

Take you a glass of water. Make it against the law. See how good the water tastes. When you can't have any at all.
Just sayin..........

As an old fallen away Catholic Altar Boy - I can tell I use the same Saint as "Elwood Blues" (Dan Akyrod) from BLUES BROTHERS -- "Our Blessed Mother of Acceleration Don't Fail Us Now!". BTSOOM

+1. That is who some Catholics pray to for safe travel. You can also pray to "GOD".

St Christopher has been taken down as a "real" saint. As an old altar boy myself, I would still go straight to the real deal. Saints are not to pray to, they are to be used as examples

As a Catholic I do pray "to the real deal" LOL.
My patron saint is like my friend who I ask to pray FOR me.
Kinda like when, say for example u have a sick relative and u ask friends and even members on this forum for their prayers, to pray for your sick family member.
It's the same thing.
