I'm going to Cycle Gear for lunch in Plano

[Monsoon X]

Going to check out some gear. I'd like to buy some stuff today

[evil jose]

Don't get raped! At least compare prices with Moto Liberity and online unless you absolutely have to have it today. Also try several different brands and see what sizes fit you that way you can do some online comparison shopping. Do me a favor and see what they carry in the way of gloves. Looking for some with gel padding, short cuff. Post up what you find.

Before you go in, grab one of their coupon catalogs, they keep them by the register, and once you buy something they will send you an updated one every month.

I like there store. They have a pretty good selection and it's organized. Motoliberty has some really nice stuff too, but they need to get a bigger store. It's too cluttered in there!!

Say hi to the really hot chick with the big nose while you're there. She's purty

I got me a Frank Thomas (did my homework on it. Rated really good quality in Europe) Textile/Leather Jacket. (Blue/white/black) Lthr on the front and back shoulders,chest,top of the arms and ribs. Nice cut, too, I look sweet in it. CE approved armor in the arms and shoulders. Has a little rinky-dink foam for back protection w/ a pocket to add something more sturdier. I looked at the Dianese back protector to put it in it but, I think I can find something w/ just as good of quality for less than 69.99. I got the jacket for $129.00 (It was on sale)

My gloves are Teknics (Kevlar). Blue/Black lthr. They cover the wrist with padding around it. The knuckles are protected w/ faux CF (I don't know if it's real CF or not.) $49.00

I still need some boots. I saw some real good looking (stylish) ankle boots but, they were $175. I've seen the ICON boots for cheaper. At least on ICON's site, they were.

When I get really good and start to transverse the tracks I'll get a full body suit...prolly a one piece.

I just checked ML's site and they sell the Dianese back protector for 5 cents cheaper. LOL I guess CG isn't that bad.

Is this the jacket?



Not a bad price for a leather/mesh jacket but I might have waited and checked out Moto Liberity for an all leather Fieldsheer for a little more money if they have one. I'll have to check out your gloves when we meet up this weekend.

[Monsoon X]

No that's not the one. Mine has leather across the whole chest and shoulders. basically the whole upper body sans abs and lower back is covered in lthr.

I thought that for a lthr/mesh jacket it was a good price for a lightweight jacket. We still have some very hot days ahead. When the mercury starts to drop I'm gonna get a lthr suit.
My gloves are similar to these Teknic gloves but of course.....in Blue
