The stunning design of this jacket from Girl Gear really caught our eye. The combination of the popular leopard style with brown and black is one of a kind. Its called the Morocco Jacket and it showcases some thoughtful features that show this jacket was definitely designed by a woman who rides.

Falling temperatures can put the chill on the journey for some motorcycle riders. One way to extend your riding season is by wearing heated gear. But pants, vests, jackets and gloves that heat by hooking into your motorcycles battery can be cumbersome with all the wires. As a result, some riders have not “bought into” the whole heated gear concept.
Taking care of your gear can be just as important as changing your oil and filling up your tank. Keeping your vision unobstructed and your gear smelling good not only makes you a better rider; its the right thing to do. Check out some of the products we swear by for safe and pleasant ride.
