Default New Jacket

Erik and I went to Iron Pony today to get a tail bag and lock for our trip over Memorial Day weekend.

They didn't have a black tail bag like wanted so I have to wait on it. Did not get a lock as I need more details on that - going to post another thread on ideas/recommendations.

But I did come home with a new jacket. It isn't leather but I think I'm OK with that. It fit perfectly but didn't have a price tag on it. I figured it would be too much but found a sales person to help, $39.99. I wasn't sure so I carried it around thinking about it. I decided to do a search (on my phone) to see what they were going for elsewhere. To my surprise they retail for $199.99 and sell for $179.99!!!! It was a no brainer. I think I got a hell of a deal

Erik came home with a tail bag and a new jacket as well. He didn't quite the deal I got, but I did get them to match price on his jacket which took $18 off the sticker.

A couple of pictures of my jacket.

Thanks everyone. I like that I can actually go to a store to try things on. I just wish they had more in my size and preferred brands, especially boots/shoes.

We are heading south to WV and Kentucky, then back home. It is with a small group, one of the guys I work with and some of his friends.

Sounds like a fun trip. I've always wanted to ride to Kentucky.

Better than a T-shirt, that's for sure and the price can't be beat.
