RIDING GEAR: I prefer Vanson, over most other brands. They are made entirely, very well too, in the Boston area, US and are a great company to support.

Leather Riding Suit: I wear Vanson leather suit. They fit me very well and last pretty much forever. Their racing grade leather and armor makes you feel extra inspired.

Summer Suit: My choice for hot weather riding is also Vanson. This time their Outback ventilated Cordura suite is hard to beat. Tough Cordura and backed with leather in strategic locations, plus armor. Although the jacket is fully ventilated, all vents can close for those chilly summer evenings in the mountains. That's one thing you can't do with a fully perforated jacket.

Booths: Sidi is the premier motorcycling booth manufacturer. As far as I know they make booths for other companies as well. I love the feel of their On Road model. For summer BMW's Airflow is a must. For casual riding around town, I have been using BMW Rambler booths for about 5 years.
