Bike jacket

Postby vliegvark » Mon Feb 11, 2008 3:58 pm

My 2c is that the best way to go is a biking jacket and pair of pants normaly made from very good material and they don't flap in the wind I bought a Lookwell jacket and I have never looked back and if you want most of the jacket one can take the padding out

Hi Batman

I have an AIRWEAR suit and it is perfect. Probably don't get as much wind in a gyro as in a trike though but they do make thermal suits as well.

Flight Suit

Postby MILO » Tue Feb 12, 2008 2:58 pm

Underpants on the inside or outside your batsuit? :) I fly trikes & have an Airware Thermal. You will not ever get cold, but you will sweat after 1 or two pull starts. My thoughts, get something big ,thinner, lots of deep pockets & relatively airproof, you can always wear stuff underneath.
