Check out this great story from the CurvyGirls, a women's riding group based in the UK.
Hey Brad, make your way through San Francisco and take a ride down 35 to Alice's. You'll LOVE It!
REV'IT Ignition Jacket and Gear Pants
[gallery link="file" order="DESC" columns="2"]
I went out riding on Sunday and who knew that Victoria would show up wearing her Ignition and Gear outfit. I had to take the opportunity to get a photo together, showing the new vs. old versions.
As you can see, I'm on the left, wearing the new version and Victoria is wearing the old. They both look great, don't they? But you can see some subtle differences between both pieces. They've decreased the textile panels on the front of the pants and changed some of the styling on the jacket.
My review is coming of both pieces, so stay tuned!
One Piece Textile Suit for Women
Do you know who makes the only fully custom one piece suit specially designed for women riders?
TeizMotosports. www.teizms.com
You can buy other custom one piece textile suits, yes. But they aren't going to offer the kind of fit that many women need (hips, waist, thighs!). Featuring great armor, front cargo pockets, waterproof zippers and more. The price point is definitely high ($899), but certainly appropriately priced for a fully custom suit measured to your needs and fit for a woman, not a man.
Even the SAS-TEC Armor that they used are sized and shaped specifically for women. No detail has been spared!
I haven't had any personal experience with one, but I do know that every effort has been made to make this suit truly fit and work for us.
SF Vintage Cycles
Check out SF Vintage Cycle down in the Dogpatch.
A great resource for all the cafe racin', vintage bike lovin' motorcycle enthusiasts looking for parts, maintenance and other repair needs. They also do restorations and custom builds.
Cool.
