Garage
bummer for me Richard...I have a conference all weekend (14+ hours a day). I'd ditch out but I'm the host and sponsor.

I've been looking at some of the reinforced jeans (Icon) as a possible casual/street solution. I've been riding either with just jeans (bad), or jeans with Alpinestars airflow textile pants (that combo should be pretty robust for commuting). Like I said, I'm not happy with how loose the jacket sleeves are, so I'm definitely going to go with a perforated leather jacket and then some matching (zip in) leather pants. But the leather pants seem a bit much for just a casual ride.

As for boots I'm still happy with my Triumph Tri Tech, but they won't do on the track, as they aren't high enough nor are they reinforced enough (and you can't tuck pants into them).

Always more stuff to get...
