Not sure if any of you ride motorcycles, talking about the British ones
in the 50s/60's/70's and remember
the waxedcotton Belstaff Jackets of England...yes the black ones. Gosh
do I miss my BSA Goldstar.

i still have a shredded, shrunken old barbour jacket; black, belted,
with bike makers' patches. i wore it for several years during the mid and
late '70's in enduros and cross country dirt bike races.
most fun i've ever had.

Wayne, I also went through two Yamaha SR500 singles, always wanted the XT,
or the TT. I made the mistake of washing my Belstaff jacket after 5 years,
and when I took it out of the washing machine it fell apart.
I'm sure you remember Kenny Roberts.
