I guess the thing that turned me off about Motoport is their awful website. I mean, if their gear is really as good as some owners have stated, then why does their website seem like an afterthought? <BR/><BR/>Anyhow, glad you and Maria both survived the crash. I've added your blog to my list!<BR/><BR/>irondad - Actually, rain's here! No worries though, as long as it doesn't freeze I'm still ridin'.<BR/><BR/>derek - I'm still on the fence regarding the one-piece/two-piece thing. I've had both, but I think a one-piece is only advantageous when it can be quickly put-on and taken off. For that, it appears that the Roadcrafter is still the king.Luckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07858400386113262050noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9839338.post-74777055147532020482008-10-28T07:52:00.000-03:002008-10-28T07:52:00.000-03:00I've been thinking about upgrading to a one-piece....I've been thinking about upgrading to a one-piece. I've got an old First Gear two-piece that's looking a little worse for wear.

The stuff is custom-fitted to your measurements so its best to talk to Wayne when putting the order in.<BR/><BR/>Not cheap but not as expensive as the Rukka stuff. Might be worth a look. After my low-side on I-70 at over 40mph, the suit barely shows any damage.<BR/><BR/><A HREF="http://redlegsrides.blogspot.com/2008/06/went-down-on-way-to-two-bits-rally.html" REL="nofollow">the crash</A><BR/><BR/><A HREF="http://redlegsrides.blogspot.com/2008/05/cycleport-gear-is-here.html" REL="nofollow">Review of the Gear</A><BR/><BR/>I've no connection to motoport except as a satisfied customer.redlegsrideshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10927757855921321097noreply@blogger.com
