All The Gear, All The Time.
When I got my first bike in September 2002 I had nothing as far as gear went. My first ride was in a t-shirt, jeans, some Earth Spirit boots, and the helmet that came with my bike's purchase. If I knew then what I know now I may have been more prepared. The next day, I went to the Great American Motorcycle Show that they were having at the North Atlanta Trade Center in Lilburn, GA where I bought my first two pieces of motorcycle kit: A purple bungee net and black perforated gloves. At the time, I only knew two other riders and I never saw them wearing anything "motorcycle" specific besides helmet and gloves.

Homemade Heated Gloves
History:
I've never been one to advocate the use of heated clothing because I always thought it to be an unnecessary expense. A good pair of gloves, enough layers, and judicious planning was all I thought I needed to make a fall/winter ride comfortable. Of course, that was thinking leftover from another life, when I was another person. Since becoming theWolfTamer, I've discovered all kinds of new truths. Most recently, theWolf doesn't like getting cold!! Now, what should I do about it?
