Wow, those lapels! What is it?
30s aviator style lapels. It's a test jacket by Regius.

FW brown Mulholland. The teacore is now officially peaking through!

First motorcycle class did not go well but it's super fun. Happy to say that the shinki did its thing and protected me from a bad road rash. It also cleaned up nicely to after wiping it down and conditioning it. @roadking04

Man put your Cal on for that class!!!

Even the Cal is too good for practicing. LOL. Wear a jacket with internal/external armor when you are practicing. Lots of practice in breaking and slow maneuvering. Sadly, It is no longer safe to commute in a bike in the US. Please be safe and ride with the mentality that everyone is out there to get you. Please be careful in left-hand turns.

I wish I didn't use up Space Balls plaid gif.

I'm still not 100% sure where your style is heading at this point but it's forming into something super cool!

I mean i’m all for wearing your jackets and not babying them but ummmmm!
my first thought too that I brought along the wrong jacket. lesson learned for sure

Ride baby ride. Enjoy it!!
thanks! it's much too early for me to ride a real motorcycle so I need to get back to the basics. the instructor told me to maybe try a scooter or an e bike first to get used to balancing and speed

BADASS!

wouldn't recommend it to anyone but yep that's one sure fire way to go on about it lol

I don't have any real gear aside from leather jackets but I saw how important it really is. I really need a lot of practice being on two wheels, I'll start by biking again and then either to an e bike/moped/scooter (or whatever that don't need a license yet). the left turn is what got me too lol

agreed, people can be so distracted and it's so noticeable too. pity it's become a habit for most people.

I would highly recommend a Dainese used jacket. Italian made ones are excellent. You can get them at a bargain from Ebay. They run a little small. My golden rule in motorcycle protection is expending as much as you can in protective gear. You will never regret it.

And now I always wear my gloves lol.
