Racer Gloves and the Motorcycle Show this weekend

racer gloves short sport The San Mateo IMS is this weekend, and I'll be working all weekend with my friend Lee at the Racer Gloves USA booth.

If you've read my reviews, you know how much I LOVE these gloves. It is unfortunate that the 2 best women's gloves in the line were discontinued, but I know that they're working on updated versions for women next Spring/Summer.

Pick up discount tickets at your local shop/dealer (Moto Shop, DStore, Cycle Gear, to name a few), or buy them online.

Come by and say hi and try on the best fitting gloves ever. I won't be doing any seminars this weekend, as I've committed myself to the Racer booth but I'll be there all weekend :D.

 

 

Moto Bash with Racer Gloves, Sat. 9/14

Saturday 9/14 is Cycle Gear's 5th Annual Moto Bash. I'll be working from 8am-4pm at the Racer Gloves booth to tell you allllll about how fabulous they are. Swing by and say hi!

My 2 favorite pairs are made by Racer. They're based in Austria and the distributor, Racer Gloves USA is right here in the Bay Area in Morgan Hill, CA. Their gloves aren't as widely known as others on the same playing field but once you go kangaroo palms, you'll never go back. They offer a wide  liner of gloves, including full race, street, summer and winter GORE-TEX. Recently they discontinued the best women's glove on the market, but it sounds like they'll have something new to release in the next year. Fingers crossed! They do offer gloves for women, including street and winter. 

Besides a huge parking lot sale, it looks like a lot of vendors will be hand selling lots of gear. More details about the event:

New Rider Tip

Taking the MSF Class? Just getting started? 

Here's a really great quote from an email that I received from a student last week who picked up a full riding outfit from me at Scuderia.

"Having real, protective gear during the class gave me a lot more confidence, and I don't know if I would have leaned that motorcycle over nearly as far if I hadn't had it."

I think it's telling how important wearing gear is. You don't have to all the way with street leathers like this person did, but gearing up with more than jeans and sneakers really makes a difference!
