I would like some riding pants, but I have large thighs, nothing fits right. I would like boots too, but I wear a US 15. Ah, maybe one day I can afford custom gear!

At minimum, I always wear my helmet, jacket, gloves, boots, and jeans. I really need to start wearing my one-piece more though.

Shoe helmet
either my motoboss 2 peice, Joe rocket ballistic mesh pants and jacket, AGC one piece for the track. A pair of hot as hell Alpine star gortex boots (looking for a ventilated pair as we speak) UFO back protector, AGV gloves, and of course a prayer and my gold cross.
