Road Rash - Hurts doesn't it?

Notice the sole of his shoe. Worn smooth by "skiing" behind or beside
his bike? Look at his toes. Running shoes aren't motorcycle boots. Not
to mention no proper jacket or pants. His friends look to be similarly
outfitted. If you're gonna do stunts please dress accordingly.

Hello Elvin,

I am a longtime lurker at concours.org...and have appreciated the many wise commentaries you have provided there.

Upon looking at this photo of the road-rashed squid..and your recommendation of the Joe Rocket Phoenix jacket...I went out and purchased one today.

Living in south FL as I do, riding in the summer is a VERY sweaty endeavor indeed. I have been wearing a light denim jacket...since my TourMaster 3/4 jacket leaves me too hot to think in the summer. But in all honesty, riding with the denim jacket was not enjoyable either...I was still hot, and felt very vulnerable in the event of a get-off.

Anyway, riding home from work today, the Phoenix was a JOY...cool, breezy, and it certainly eases my fear of road-rash....heaven forbid.

Anyway..forgive the rambling...but please accept my sincerest thanks.

Appreciativly,

Roger
