Driving me nuts!

I'm not sure if was here or elsware, but I saw a while ago some links to a site selling adventure/enduro type pants and I can't remember the name of them.

The search function and google are all very well and good if you have somewhere to start, but 'pants' and 'enduro' bring about alot of posts, none of which point to where I want to be....

So, to start the search again;

I want a pair of pants,

They must be 'in-boot' rather than 'over boot'

They must be windproof

They must be ventable

I'd like pockets

I'd like breathability

I'd like waterproof - but it's not important

Any suggestions ? Links would be good.

Hopefully the site I saw will pop up here and it'll all be sorted!

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
