Gear
« on: May 23, 2016, 03:59:48 PM »
What kind of gear does everyone wear and with what type of bike? I've got some old gear from my sport bike days that doesn't match per say. Blue gear and a black 78 550.

Hand-me down helmet and a swap meet joe rocket jacket.  Still in search of boot and pants.

Have fleece lined carpenter jeans for colder rides and my motocross pants for the soggy occasion

30 year old leather bomber jacket, Cowboy or Durango boots, Dickies/Jeans or Khakis, Tourmaster cheap-a$$ leather gloves for winter, English-style horse riding gloves for summer, helmet.  So as far as gear . . . not much.

Does anybody wear riding shoes?  I seen them in a bike store,  they seem to be well made and very heavy - while looking like high top sneakers.
