Winter Update #5

Spring is drawing near, and with that comes the inevitable check of the old gear, and the buying of new gear.

One of my major concerns this year is helmet and back protector. My old back protector is very stiff, and marginally to long for me, so I was in the market for a new one.

I ended up with a FORCEFIELD PRO L2 back protector from MC Oslo:

It is made from a softer material than my old one, so it shouldn't be as rigid. The manufacturer also claims that this back protector is better than traditional "hard" ones. Hopefully, I'll never find out! =)

My second concern is my helmet; a two year old HJC. I bought it at a decent price, but what was once a thight fit, is now a loose helmet almost spinning if I turn my head quickly. I need to replace that too...
