Arai Tour X3 helmet: This was the replacement for the Arai Chaser
nicked in Argentina. Arai lids seem to fit me well. Kevin recommends a
flip-front as being more convenient but I like the peak on this one. As you can
see I went for the special “Long Way Round - Charlie” paint job to match the bike.
A slave to the celebrity culture as always.
BMW Rallye 2 Textile Suit: Protection at all the corners and
wind and rain proof (up to a point).
Sidi Adventure Boots: Rock solid, full length, waterproof and
comfortable. Top kit.
Pod knee braces: With a dodgy knee from the Patagonian dog
incident, I decided to go for a set of these orthopaedic knee braces designed
for MotorX. They allow you knee to bend as normal but give lateral and
torsional support to stop your cruciates giving way. Knee pads help in a crash
too.
