yeah so today I decided I needed some new dancing shoes

Got myself a pair of Tourmaster Response Road Boots (waterproof)
as my old sh!tty boots split apart ...Vega brand ....what a waste those POS's were ! (Stay away from 'em)

Anyway the Tourmasters came in okay at 102 bucks shipped M-S-Store
They're waterproof and not a full length boot, better for summer riding !
and as a former rugger player with propfwd legs too lol, oh and the reviews
were pretty damned good on them....so what the hell worth a try I'd say

They better get here before the big Trip !

Anyone been getting any gear lately ??

 

Also grabbed 3 more pairs of kevlar jeans. Saving up for some pants that'll attach to the jacket. My gear budget is pushed to the limits

 

I picked up new rain gear and left it home when I went to price tires. Boy oh boy did I get caught in a good down pour. I don't mind if I'm moving but I was in stop and go rush hour traffic. I was thinking about the rain gear the whole time.

Sprock, I think you will be seeing me wear it on Thursday and Friday if things don't change.

 

Picked up a brand-new set of chaps for momma for $50 of craiglist on Saturday.
Fit perfect, just had to trim for length.

Dang Kuro ............. very nice gear and no wonder the Bike Budget took a hit man !


TBT ............ yup got m some new rainproof pants too to go with the above boots
You Guys should be riding into good weather here Thursday and Friday ....per the
forecast ! ......... But ...... bank on wet weather up in the Canadian Maritimes next
week .......... tho' maybe we'll get lucky

Good deal Ern ...... can't beat Craigslist for those super sweet deals

 

Just ordered

Bionic 2 Protection Jacket
SP-2 Gloves
Torque Jeans
Reflex Knee Guards

It's funny, when I was younger I would ride in sandals, t-shirt, shorts, and helmet. I look back now and think how stupid I was....

 

Nice gear man, hey like nobody started out with less than full gear

Well I got kids so the budget is waaaay tighter than some of you Guys .... lol

Man Aplinestars and Dainese have some nice gear tho !

 

I just got done buying some Sidi Vertigo's. Hopefully they'll be here within the week.

 

I hear yah about the kids. I have 3. I just got a bonus at work, thats why I was able to afford what I just ordered. I still need better boots, and a leather jacket as I have a textile one now. Maybe in a couple of months..... People that live in climates like us cant ride year round. Well, least most dont :P

 

So long as I stay away from Revzilla (their store is a couple blocks from the office) gear purchases are strictly budgeted. Otherwise I'd have to dig into the Beer Budget
