It also talks about

"The EXPERTS Riding kit"

Cleaving through the air is an exhilarating feature of riding a motorcycle, one of it's greatest charms. But one must be adequately clad. No one can ride really well if cold or wet.

the essentials in body protection are to purchase a motor cycle coat, as opposed to a normal about-town raincoat, and to buy a garment whic is amply large,. Not only must the knees, thighs, and crutch be covered when one is in the saddle, but there needs to be room for piling on under-garments to cope with the cold weather ....

... when waders are used, as opposed to mackintosh leggings, they should fit reasonably snugly over ones shoes, otherwise operation of the brake pedal and gear change will be clumsy.

GLOVES

A square of wash-letaher sewn on to the back of a riding glove can be invaluable for goggle cleaning.



I think I'm now a little off-topic
