Clothing Review: River Road Men’s Hoodlum Jacket
Where some lower priced jackets come up short, but the REVIT! Levante shines making it worth its $300 price tag. I wore the jacket in a light rain shower and stayed dry.

But, for my 50th birthday, Neil somehow managed to have me take motorcycle lessons.
