Forgot to post this update a couple weeks ago when I posted my review of the all new REV'IT Ignition 2 Jacket and Gear 2 Pants.
I'm in the new version above (Euro 38) and my friend Victoria (Euro 36) is in the older version on the right. Read my reviews and how my weight loss changed the fitment on this beautiful outfit once I dropped almost 20 pounds (to Victoria's size).

I love reader emails. I got this lovely note from a reader recently and had to share this article he mentioned. Thanks TH!
Hi Joanne,
Love your segments on Wheelnerds and Pace podcasts. Please keep up the very informative + timely info.
Anyways, thought you may like this article from HFL and maybe reference it next time on the Pace (perhaps even a link on your site)
I liked it 'cause you rarely see such a detailed review of gear and how it worked after rolling along the tarmac.

This is indeed a very good article about how even basic street gear can save your body parts from serious injury. Normally, HFL closes articles after a certain period of time (12 hours) unless you're a paid subscriber. But luckily, they decided to keep this one open permanently, given how important the message is.
Mmm boots. Looking for a sturdy, all around street boot? Check out my latest review of the lovely Fusion Leis.
