Well after 20 odd some years of riding I finally decided to get some gear. But now that I think about it I'm gonna look silly riding around on a utility trike with racks on it. :rolleyes: What do you guys think?

Most of the times helmet gloves and boots. I've got a nice Honda jersey and race pants and a set of Fly, but rarely wear em, cause my riding buddies don't have any.

You need a back of the leg helmet. Or maybe padded footpegs. :lol: :beer
I usually wear a helmet, goggles, gloves, jersey with just a pair of jeans and foot protection by Nike. I have a pair of riding boots but I just don't like the feel of them. Going on ebay soon.

red AFX helmet, Thor quadrant boots, answer alpha air gloves, jean shorts for now. I had to have extensions made for my boot straps cuz my calfs are so big the factory buckles would latch shut.
before I got my boots I thought they wouldnt make a difference in riding and leg fatigue(sp), I was wrong they helped me out more than I can express.

I ride with flip flops and a thong.:lol: :crazy: Just kidding. I usually just ride with T-Shirt, shorts on and Tennis shoes. Unless its winter. Never had any problems. I guess im abnormal. I like being comfortable.;) Oh, and a helmet.

Boots, helmet and gloves at a minimum here. Usually wear knee/shin guards and elbo guards too. Never got into the pants and jerseys yet but I do miss my chest protector for when I get a little extra nuts.

Can we gets some pics of that?! :eek: :rolleyes:
I kind of went for the dull look with the grey and black. I was contemplating something a bit flashier but i got an outstanding deal on the shirt and pants. I was also thinkin about gettin a chest protector as well. I guess they are all pretty much the same eh?

Man, 10 minutes out in the sun with this gear and I'm soaked to the gills... Maybe I'll take Clay's advise and stick with the sandles and thong! :wondering
