leathers
 
I'm probably gonna be getting some new leathers for when the weather gets better. Where is a good place to go to and have a large selection and a very good range in prices? I don't mind travelling a bit, but not too far, so where's good and close to Orpington/Bromley....?

Shin me old baked bean. Hein gericke, J&S, then there are a few places over essex way which are worth a look.

I quite like some of the leathers in Hein Gericke, but I wanna avoid Sam :wink: . Only joking babes, I'll pop passed sometime soon.

J&S? I'll have to have a lookie-see.

What about infinity? Do they have much in there?

They do, but not a huge selection. The best place for leathers has gone, that being the AllyPally show. Ok not always discounted, but lots of choice in pne place. I still like my HG leather trousers, they have lasted well, and although a bit dirty, still in good nick.

Theres a big bike shop in Crawley that would be worth a trip, but i cant remember the name of the place. Its 2 initals.

Yeah I think I know the one you mean. p & h or something isn't it?

just been looking on the j&s website, and even though I don't need a new helmet thought it was interesting that they do the Shoei XR1000 Alloy Helmet for £199.99! Pretty good price I think.

Anyways, I'll go around a few places and check some leathers out. Might drag BBC along if she's bored.

ok, am I at yours this weekend? I can do a different weekend with Looney Tunes, when ever is best for her and hopefully the weather will be nice and we can get her back on the bike :D

With J&S make sure you are 100% happy with the fit in the shop.
If you read the small print on the reciept they do not exchange stuff because of incorrect fit.

I learnt this the hard way #-o :oops:
