I know I have seen this somewhere before, but I am freezing already. I have to leave very early in the am and I have a mesh jacket. I love my MP3 so much, that I want to ride well into the colder weather. I am a plus size and am having alot of trouble finding jackets. Any suggestions?
Oh, and does anyone in the USA sell the Piaggio skirts?

My black Tour Master Venture Air Pants (tourmaster.com) have two liners...One liner is water proof , the second one is a quilted liner..Both liners are removable and can go back in together or separately. These pants are very comfortable...I got them locally...They run large...I bought a women's small .... I usually wear a med. or large. Cost about $100 or so....Great joint protection, too...knees, hips and butt.... Also, have sewn in reflective grey panel and piping.. Love'm...

Other than that ...I use jafrum.com....very low prices...I just bought some summer pants in the closeout section and will buy extras...They also run large to the size.... I bought a man's Small 32 waist and do I feel skinny...it's a total lie, but be advised these sizes also run large...
Check out their Closeout section....

Hope this helps....cheers...jacq

Also, I use to work outdoors in the winter..I wore jeans for rugged durability in difficult working conditions....I ordered from Landsend..Silk longjohn underpants...Silk is very thin and can go underneathe your regular jeans or pants... Silk is warmer than the thicker cotton long johns. Also, Landends, has silk crew neck and turtle neck long sleeve under shirts in many colors which can be worn as an actual turtle neck without an overshirt...
The silk long john pants are very durable, comfortable, very warm and thin...Just a thought...
Cheers...jacquie

I really like the style of this jacket, wish they made a guys version. http://www.newenough.com/browse/view_product_images/612
Edit: I do have to say that I can't see anything too girly about the mocha one. I might not lose my manhood if I wore one. Razz emoticon

Also seems like a good place to look for other gear. Somebody posted a link to newenough the other day and I have kept it up on my browser for downtime perusal.

I also have those Tourmaster pants that Jacq mentioned. I have put mine to the "road impact" test, and can recommend them in that they hold up when it counts. I am very thankful to still have my knee

I have safety clothing from Cycleport www.motoport.com it's expensive but VERY safe and with the optionable removable liners I ordered with my jackets and pants make for all year round wearable. The jacket and pants I ordered are made of mesh kevlar.

GlowGuy..That jacket is kinda a retro style of one that is reminiscent of the 1940's German jackets...I saw a movie where General Rommel wore on like that. I saw a German motorcyle rider wear one and also a German pilot wore something like that in couple of movies made in the 50s. So there should be no question about manhood with this... just what size would you order..

The mocha is the best....go for it...dude.

Cheers...jacquie
