« on: September 25, 2012, 10:39:58 AM »


Ok...might be a while (at least a week or two) as I just got the helmet yesterday...and I hadn't really planned to do a review...but BF wants one and BF gets what he wants :)

Helmet? - check
Armored jacket? - check
Armored gloves? - nope
Pirate gloves? - check
Boots? - nope
Squidly sneakers? - check.

ATGATT? - about 50%

If you plan on "riding" your back you might want to consider some proper pants too...
Once you go EV, gas is history!

Go easy on the beaver... Thats much more gear than most wear around here. Im pretty bad about not wearing my sidi boots, in fact, they still look new :-[ I have taken a trip in my jeans and they held up nicely... must be those kevlar reinforcements. ;)

Thats why Im always buying the most comfortable stuff, and not by all means the safest. Youre Hi-tec-* arent worth shit if you dont wear them :D
In fact, I got my stuff so comfortable that I even wear them on a daily basis. Then it also might be cause my biking gear is the only winter gear I own :D
I've always wondered why motorsport isnt a traditional winter sport, with all that clothing. Might be cause of that damn ice.

My boots are super comfortable - sure, they're cheapies, (Vega) but they'll do a decent job of protecting my ankles at the speeds I ride.  Plus - they're SO comfortable, I actually haven't taken them off since I got to work.

I've got some Sidi air boots that are really comfortable. Wear 'em everyday on my job. They're some sort of synthetic and they're super lightweight.



I''ve got some Daytona low-top boots that are very comfortable as well. Your foot just knows it's a great boot.



ATGATT is the only way to fly, having been across the asphalt a couple of times. Rather sweat than bleed. And with the great gear that's out now, I really don't have to sweat.
