    Slightly disappointed... with the amount of cages around the building.
    Heaps of people there but I attracted the attention of one of the staff who said "your the first customer to ride in here today".

    Hopefully they brought their cars to carry away vast amounts of goodies.

    It would be pretty hard to buy much and then ride home with it.. But I saw quite a few bikes there on Saturday.

    I think the Rockhard helmet I bought may have been a contributing factor in dropping my bike.. it gives me more of a 'blindspot' than the other helmet I've been using so I have to twist further to see behind me when I back into my garage Well atleast it was only enough to give my exhaust a little rub, and even less of a rub on my front brake lever.

    I rode there on saturday, got some boots *That I'm sure are supposed to be tucked UNDER my new *Too tight, must go there tomorrow* pants.



    I wonder if I bought MotoX boots

    But yeah, took off my jeans and work shoes, wrapped the mammoth blue bag around my pillion... Strap thing heaps, got lost on the way home, then ate
    Can I bring the pants back tomorrey, and swap for a larger size?
    Providing there's more, and I turn in totally new condition pants.

    ???

    Boots go over leather pants, cordura.. not so sure.. I'd imagine not seeing as it's generally meant to be waterproof.

    And i'll be going in tommorow, there bloody well better be a Slayer helmet left..

    I think I saw you, playing around with the bag on your bike.

    I'd say pants should always go over boots, I think water will have a hard time making it that far up my pant legs to get over my boots, but if the boots are on top.. well then all the water running down my leg will end up in my boot, right?

    And they had about 6 Slayer helmets left (in the stack of boxes, maybe they have more in their stock room if they have one) when I was there around 12 on Saturday, not too sure on sizes though.. I bought a large, which there were some more of, and I saw an XL.. didn't look much further than that.

    You see, that's what I reckoned.
    But these boots are big chunky things, and will never see my shin skin with the matching of my new pants.
    Diameter of boots at ankle = X+5cm, biggest diameter the ankle end of the pants will take = X.
    Perhaps I should buy black boots. Grr...
    Guess I can always just look silly!
    Took me longer to get the bag off, than on, by the way.

    Sweet, picked up my Slayer helmet today and got a tinted visor for it.

    Didn't really look around at the other specials.. was a real nice day and I just wanted to grab the helmet and go for a ride. Maybe i'll go back tommorow.
