Not bought anything for a while but today has been like Christmas.

New summer vented and perforated Dainese jacket and its smells quite wonderful. Had the money for this since last Xmas but been waiting for the price to be sensible as its one of their best jackets. Bought from Motocard.

And also a Pretty Green polo shirt for my holidays.

A moving in present from the mortgage company.

Half bottle of wine, some posh crisps with dip, and a small tool St.

Very nice.

But I would have preferred they invested the money in the mortgage

Nice jacket and pajama top Duke ;)

Is the jacket a Laguna Seca jacket as looks very similar to my suit. The smell is wonderful I can appreciate what your saying. As a tip dont wear it if on a ride out with Rocket as he won't stop stroking you and commenting how soft it is (giggle)

Leathers, same as my old ones just a size smaller and different colour. Fit a lot more snug but not too tight. Near new and I picked them up for $300!

AGV Evo K4, $200 down from $380. Fits well and feels pretty light.

And some boring bar ends.

Still waiting on a foot peg and levers.

My nan had a pair of those but hers had sheepskin around the top :D

Just kidding. How does the ankle protection work? I presume there's plastic pieces behind the fabric?

It's carbon and kevlar on an innner Boot.

Watching motogp last night Rossi and all the other Dainese riders use exactly the same boot.

It's all inside like the Daytona range of boots.

Hopefully this shot of the inner Boot shows it better

Good article here on how this Boot saved Sandro Cortese from a career ending injury.

Mrs Gee had a thin book delivered in an anorexic Jiffy bag, our postman folded it into 3 to get it through our letterbox and left it there to assume a new shape all day. She's not a happy bunny tonight and wants blood, hopefully not mine.

Got a load of CDs I ordered a while ago from a German company. Cheap CDs but slow service. Good job I'm not in any rush.
