← Head - The most important thing to protect! An Arai Qauntum/f (L) helmet, neck gaitor for cold days and ear plugs as always. Get a breath deflector for you helmet 'cause it works and looks cool from a distance and always, always, always wear your earplugs. |

Torso ↑ Alpinestars NS-5 (XL) or TZ1 (52?) jacket (depending on my mood), a Widder electric vest for the cold days* and a Firstgear synchro rain jacket for the wet (or really cold) ones. I have no real complaints about any of these items and I've crashed tested all of multiple times (doh). | |
|
← Hands Icon (XL) short gloves for commuting, Widder electric gloves for cold days and I throw on a pair of my road racing gloves for canyon carving. The Widder gloves are warm, plugged in or not, but their cloth construction doesn't hold up that well in a crash and if you take 'em out in a good rain plan on a couple days for 'em to dry out afterward. |
|
← Legs Motoport Voyager AX overpants (XL) and Firstgear synchro rain pants (when necessary). The Motoport pants are the best overpants that I've found and motoport's customer service is outstanding. The pants would be better if they added some hip padding and I had a tailor sew on some velcro for kneepucks for canyon carving. The Firsgear rain pants are dry, cheap, durable and easy to pull on. |
|
← Feet What can I say? I love my Sidi Vertebra (46) boots! I either keep some normal shoes at work or take some with me. These boots are all day long comfortable, particularly if you drop a pair of gel arch support pads in 'em. |
