    I had the same thoughts for the majority of my riding. I was thinking the idea of extra safety in towns/traffic could be a bonus. I also thought it might help the Mrs. feel safer about riding with me. She seems to be contemplating riding the Connie with me. 

    I'm all for whatever gets the Mrs to come along. So if it would make her feel safer and enjoy the experience more, I'm all for it!

  2. What jumps out to me first is that it's another thing that I'd have to charge. I have a hard enough time keeping my Bluetooth headset charged before rides. @ $170 it's not cheap, but can you put a price on safety? I kind of feel the same way about the A* Tech-air  vests. I don't ride often at night so I'm not sure how much more visibility this would provide during the day. I just wonder how bright it is. Definitely interesting!

  3. Brand new pair of SIDI ST Race boots Euro size 42.  Asking for what I paid $300 shipping not included. Looks like they are retailing between $330 and $360 right now.

    Only worn around the house for an hour or two. I really, really like these boots and hate that they just don't fit my wide ass foot! I'm not sure if I'd ordered a size larger if they would have fit. They just pintch in the toebox and cause my toes to go numb.

  4. I'm happy to tag along depending on the current happenings. Any NEO rides are good for me as they mean I'm closer to home. One of the joys for me is being a part of a ride that I'm not leading. It allows me to focus only on the road in front of me and decompress from the stress of everyday life. A little Rider fellowship and hearty meal can cure just about anything.

    Don't get me wrong, I will gladly lead and take my turn. It's just a guilty pleasure to not have that responsibility now and again.

    I'm looking forward to next season!
