    Yip and while we are on wet riding tips. Carry a roll of gladrap. Comes in very handy. Get a fellow biker or freindly passer-by to apply to leaky rider.

    If my styl martins ever do that I'll have to check it out back where I brought them

    Gumboots are OK, but you need the forestry sort. Only problem is that your feet sweat like mad, and then pong like mad.

    Got the PVC overtrou (mine are green thou). Duct tape isn't very good , it never seems to hold together for more than a few hundred kilomtres and then gets tangled round everything.

    My new Sidi boots are awesome (and don't leak yet). Wouldn't buy another other brand of boot now, even if they do start to leak when they get older. Found that wearing Icebreaker socks made such a huge difference, feet get wet but not cold and socks dry really quick

    One of the zips went on my sidis and it was well over a year since i got them, motomail sent them back not expecting any joy. But the top blokes at sidi fixed them right up and said to bring them back if it happens to the other boot. Next time i need to get another set of boots, i'm not even looking at anyone else. Nice work guys.
