David,
Good thing you got ballistics. Friend of mine took a bike tumble this past

pavement I could feel my skin on fire and when I stopped I could smell
burning flesh". He was only wearing gym pants and a T-shirt. Bob

I've been as dry as toast, happy as a clam, snug as a... You get the idea, well made, well priced and they make 'em in XXL Tall (black only). This was definitely the year to get some serious protection from the elements. The only negative might be in hot weather but I have not had the chance to test the outfit on a hot sunny day -- there haven't been any. I have been in a couple of frog drowners already this season and the gear has done its job. In fact I had to do some waterproofing on my Aerostich messenger bag. I turned it inside out and put silicone goop where the yellow liner had cracked at the corners. David in NYC (Ready to Loop at the Guzzis at the Blue Ridge) |
