They're also less likely to permanently stain in the event you do find some mud.

And also, offroad gear get's updated every year. This means clearance specials on 09, 08 and even some 07 stuff for literally cheaper than I can buy clothes sometimes.

*For Example

Answer WMX gear, both a jersey n pant for $40... Can't beat that considering my 2010 jersey costs that by itself.

Over the boot is fine for ATV riding. I have some MX boots that I need to get rid of if your husband is looking. Fox Forma Pro (James Stewart model) boots size 11.

I'll take them.

I know you offered them to Chi's hubby so we'll give him first right of refusal.

He may be, I'll check with him. He worked last night so he's still unconscious.

He's already got a helmet and other assorted stuff, I ordered my helmet last night and am still pondering the awesomely cool gear Tye directed me too...I need to win the lottery.

Im not reading the whole thread but knee and shin gaurds. And really you should wear a pair of good motocross type boot also. I was pitched off a farm quad riding through some tall brush once and it fractured my kneecap. Its a painful injury requiring surgery and lengthy healing. And could be prevented by $20 gaurds

Not for the type of trail riding she's going to be doing...





**Same goes from earlier in this thread** you don't need tearoff's for your goggles. Unless you're constantly getting roosted or purposely hitting your FACE on branches n bushes, those are unnecessary too.
