Default Say hello to my little friend...

Well I finally decided I was time to buy some real riding boots. After doing a few short rides I wonder why the hell I did not get these boots 5 years ago. Anyway here they are my new little friends...I don't think I'll ride without them ever again!!



Some modeling photos


Don't mind the nakedness, I am buck naked cause it is about 300 degrees in my condo right now. the scar on inside of right leg is from the exhaust on my gixxer last summer

I also realized, I have an extra helmet....sigh...

From where?

They are Vert2s, are they not? They look just like mine.

Now you need some gloves...I can't understand why a guy with so much experience, and such a need for speed, is dumb enough to ride without them.

Don't rethink. White boots look like sneakers I wish I had white ones instead of black ones.

I have gloves and a couple jackets as well, not shown

They are vert2's yes, I got them from criagslist, some rich kid who bought them , wore them once (literally) and then sold his bike.

I do have gloves, LOL, they are just the first thing to come off in the heat, I know I know im working on it. No seriously I am avoiding taking them off, the stupid **** I do, my hands are bound to get wrecked, so im wearing them all the time now even though i don't like it heh....

They should be the last thing to come off. If you're really hot, ride without a jacket. Not entirely safe either, but if you have to remove something, remove that.
