Well it starts with a pair of 15 year old Y Front's from Farmers and then it's a real mixture. Please don't ask me to go and check either. My gear bag has a hazzardess label on it because of the stench. Even my dog won't go near it.

I shop out of bargin bins,so there's Fox and Fly,Acerbis,Scott and Gaerne...and other bits of gear I don't know where the hell it came from.I mix road and off road gear,so it gets even more complicated.

Off Road

Thor Quadrant boots
Jeans - gotta get me some proper pants sometime
Dri Rider Dual Sport jacket
Cirrus helmet
Leather off road gloves that I've had for years

Road
Stylmartin Boots
Leather pants
Dri Rider Dual Sport jacket or Orina jacket - cant remember the model
Shoei XR600 helmet
Leather road gloves that I've had for years, or the off road ones if it's hot

The mixture varies if I'm doing a ride with a significant amount of both road and off road in it.

Looking for a new dual sport helmet, but can't find an Arai Xcross helmet down here to try on.

I've had Fly pants and shirts for nearly 5 years - no worries. I've got Fox tracker boots because I've not found other boots big enough. I originally had Fly gloves which fit perfectly but mx gloves don't last forever and I've just bought 2nd pair of Fox gloves. I was given a HJC helmet which I use for my Helmet cam and a Star helmet which is getting on so I'll be looking for a replacement soon. Fly chest protector which was cheap and does the job. Just bought some EVS knee braces which were bloody uncomfortable first time out - but expected that.

we've had a full range of fly, fox, no fear, acerbis, but the current gear is alpinestars, and is it the best build quality by far.

Oh - 15 years ago I found a red and blue Honda sweatshirt in the rag bin at work....I cut the sleeves off and wore it over my leather jacket when I rode at the dirt track,stops the mud caking on the leather.Had some big tumbles and it never ripped.I still wear it trials riding,keeps the mud off whatever I wear under it.
