Can I borrow someone's bike gear?

**TheDemonLord** · 26th August 2015, 13:27

And no, its not because I have a weird Leather sniffing fetish or because I want to ride round in Drag....

Long story short - After much Nagging, I may have persuaded my Wife to come pillion with me (Yay!) but she is unsure and doesn't want to splash out on the cost of Bike Gear unless she likes it and feels safe.

So, I thought I would ask if there are any ladies who either have a spare set of gear or wouldn't mind lending a set out - as I am an ATGATT Nazi, I would be looking for Helmet, boots, Jacket, Gloves and trousers. Obviously gear would be lent on the basis of We Bin it, We bought it and I can also ply you with Wine as a Thank you.

I have a date in mind for when this would be, but no point in working out the finer details if no one is keen.

Happy to be PM'd if you would prefer to talk about this type of thing not in public.

It may help if you give an indication of size.

Did someone say WINE?!!!

Not sure on Helmet size

Gloves are an Alpine Star Small
Boots are a US size 9

I will have to get the waist sizes - I would guess the Jacket would be a women's Large?

Do you Lasses know if there is an easy conversiony chart thing where I can put in her Dress size and it will tell me the appropriate leather size.

Also - In addition to the offer of Wine based bribery, there may also be chocolate.

You dont know her waist size and you are calling her large. Boy are you in trouble if she reads this thread.

Unless it's a leather dress, with armour...no.

I have some gear that I don't fit anymore ...
Sidi Leather Jacket 12/14 -
Revit Textile Pants 12

And I have
Revit XS Gloves - faded but still good working order
HJC XS good condition

Also - In addition to the offer of Wine based bribery, there may also be chocolate.

This just gets better and better!

May have a helmet, pair of boots and pants however will have to check when I get home.

No jacket though unless I can convince the better half to give it up for a few days

Mind PM'ing me the dates?

He's from Gore.

In (or near) Gore ... "Lady" size is deemed as unimportant ... for good reason.

You'll have a better chance of getting a root ... and a better chance of her making you breakfast ... (win win)
