"Sorry to disappoint you but riding motorcycles is not a low riding, hipster hugging, saggy ass jean kind of activity. You need real pants." -Me.
Motorcycle Gift Idea, Base Layers
Warm baselayers are one of the 'Must Haves' for any woman who rides year round. It really does make a difference!
Above left is the Schampa skinny shirt (matching pants also available). Read my review here.
Above right is the Icebreaker Merino Wool zip top. It's on sale from Backcountry Gear for $75. I've heard great things about Icebreaker clothing. If you know someone who can't afford to buy a whole new set of insulated, armored gear, this might be a great accessory in the meantime to help keep them a little bit warmer and more comfy.
Unfortunately I don't know what the fitment is with the Icebreakers, but I did stumble upon a travel forum that had some comments implying that they're curvy friendly in terms of shape.
Motorcycle Gift Ideas, Heated Glove Liners
For $89.95, these heated glove liners are sure to make your holiday giftee extremely happy.
What's really nice about Gerbing is their microwire technology means that all their heated gear instantly heats up, no wait time! Ok, maybe 5-10 seconds, but that's nothing compared to the 1-2 minute warmup you may experience with other brands.
At only 12v, they won't take much power to run off most bikes. You can never go wrong with heated!
Motorcycle Gift Idea, Reflective Decals or Stickers
Just found these cool reflective eyes on Ebay for $7. Perfect for the back of your helmet, eh? :)
Everyone needs motorcycle stocking stuffers! Most motorcyclists I know love the idea of being more visible in one way or another. If she doesn't want to wear these on her helmet, she could probably add them to her jacket or backpack.
You can find all kinds of logos/decals online in a variety of colors and graphics. Just google for 'reflective helmet decals' or 'reflective stickers and I'm sure you can find something that she'll love.
I just ordered a roll of white, pinstripe reflective tape from eBay so I can create a pattern on the back of my white helmet. You can find tape in all different reflective colors and widths if you just google.
