She normally travels sitting on my headlight behind my screen.
I bet you've already gotten lot's of invites but if you're looking for Boston intel or meet ups send a PM.

I am the girl from Wisconsin who hooked D up with that awesome bendy bondage chick.

With regard to the women's stuff, I just sent Shogani several links to the German suppliers' stuff in her size.

The three big outfits all have sites that speak English, and Louis ships all over the world. polo has the best kids' gear and is the least pricey. I personally wear Gericke and love it. Futz around, you will find things. It is almost all true to size. I fit between a 36 and 38 in everything, see below me in my 38 Lady Air Coldblack IV summer combo with Dainese boots.

Hein Gericke

Louis

Me in Remagen, not being Carraciola

If the rallies I've been to are any indication, most of y'all need to lose some tonnage.

Think of it as free horsepower! There's a formula, but for every pound you lose, its like gaining X hp.

It's a total win. There's nothing like riding the dragon on a cushman to make all the part time badasses feel like they should have kerosene rags tied around their ankles.

Yes, and that is one fine teeny-weeny polka dot bikini she's wearing.

Enjoy the trip!
