Just a leather jacket

Does anyone ever ride anymore with just a leather jacket, jeans and leather boots? :confused1:

Yes.Me!

If it gets moist, I wear an oversuit, if it gets warm, I sweat.

Maybe I should move with the times, but I am going with retro chic..

Happy Riding

Joel

I sure got....

....my buffalo leather jacket and leather pants! I do use them (at least sometimes), preferrably in spring and autumn. For the rest of the year I prefer my textile stuff and "specail" (Dragin) jeans.

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.
