Aerostich products. Go to the IBMWR list and ask them about Aerostich pr=
oducts and you'll get more than enough, couple of dozen atleast, posts ex=
tolling the virtues of their products. I always wore leathers and carrie=
d a rain suit w/ me. I didn't believe in those space suit products until=
I watched my wife tumble/slide down the tarmac in front of me a few year=
s ago when she waxed out doing 70+. We had just adopted our son and the =
first two thought in my head as I saw her come to a stop was, 1) I'm a si=
ngle father! and 2)My mother-in-law is going to kill me! But she escaped=
w/ no road rash any wear her suit was in contact w/ her body. She had s=
ome on her knuckles, some on one wrist where she hadn't tightened the vel=
cro closure on the suit and that's it. She had a broken collar bone from=
crashing into the pavement and some bruises on her face where her helmet=
pushed her glasses into her face. I sent her two piece Roadcrafter suit=
back and the jacket was deemed totaled by
Aerostich (this happens if it costs more than half of the price of a new =
jacket to replace), but they gave us a big discount on a new jacket and a=
ll they did to the pants is restitch the butt where the stitching was fra=
ed. Not bad. I then purchased a used Darien Aerostich jacket from the I=
BMWR marketplace and bought the Darien pants new from Aerostich. I do us=
e Vanson perforated pants and a perfed jacket in the worst heat of summer=
, but when I go on a trip or most of the year I wear the Darien. When it=
gets dirty you just throw it into the washing machine. I know there are=
many other products that have similar virtues, but for me there is only =
one I'd trust my body to and that's Aerostich. But unlike most riders I =
wear complete protective gear head to toe during any ride. If your inter=
ested in an Aerostich suit, but can't afford a new one look at the IBMWR'=

You can even get the new ads sent to you mail when they update them durin=
g the week. I search through the sections I'm interested in and then del=
ete it.
