Frey Daytona glove, paging Lozzo

The Voyage glove
A 3-Season glove by Frey-Daytona
It has a neoprene innner cuff that helps to form a seal inside your jacket
sleeve, whilst you wear the outer cuff over the sleeve.

The link says it is made in Austria but there are no details at
www.daytona.de.

Have you, or anyone seen it on sale in this country?

 

No - but I know quite a few of the 'winter' gloves offer such a "drain"
feature...

I haven't seen it, I'm sorry. Hein Gericke do one in a similar style,
they apparently work very well.

 

Here Loz, do you know where I can get hold of some daytona boots up
north? I tried calling Tony's of Prestatyn, who appear to be the UK
importer, but they've sold up just the other week.

The new lot that Tony's now point people to seem to be allergic to
lifting the phone.

Also, does anyone know how good the Nonstop GTX is?

I had one of them. The brakes were shit.

Petrolcan wears Nonstops, he seems happy enough with them. They aren't
as warm as Roadstars because they lack the thicker inner liner. They are
based on the Flash sports boot that appeared in the range until late
last year. All they did was add a Goretex membrane and changed the sole
for the chunky one from the Roadstar instead of the thinner sport sole.
Good boots. I don't think the Nonstop is made any more though, ISTR it
being replaced with the Voyager, which is what MattG wears. Matt is more
than happy with his.

I haven't a clue who stocks Daytona boots in your area. I always point
people towards Graham at GLF Accessories when I get asked. Next time
you're down this way it'd be worth you popping in there, he'll sort you
out.

 

... here, 'cos MSI replaced my graphics card under warranty ...

... and there's beer in the fridge and whisky in the cabinet ...

 

Anything in the jar?

 

Heh. I'm looking for a new lid too. I can feel the plastic trembling.

x2.

 

Christofire says...

<shakes with a salesman's excitment>

Really sir, had you anything in particular in mind?

 

Heh. You weren't so quick when I tried to call you yesterday! Sorry I
didn't pick up when you returned - was on the bike.

Whilst you're in salesmans mood - who round here does Spada gear? I
tried some pokey little place on the edge of Slough, who had some Nitro
gear and a single Spada jacket, who is according to the Spada website a
dealer. Tsk.

I then popped up to J and S, and they didn't have what I wanted, then
swiftly across to Moores (or whatever) at Apsley to get a non tinted
Uvex visor, and they didn't have any.

Bit of a shit day really. Still, I made a broken down girlie bikers day
by giving her a lift to her mates.

I was in serious body recovery mode. I didn't get home until 8am
Saturday morning ;-)

Haven't a clue. Basically any Shoei dealer should be able to get Spada
stuff, as they are distributed by the same people.

Have you not got a phone?

Karma. You knows it.

 

Something beginning with A or U.

 

Christofire says...

A helmet?

U knows it?

Recovering from what?

Hmmm okay.. ta.

I wasn't that far away and needed some fresh air.

Ho Yush.

Now spill...

No

 

I put on an Arai a few years ago and nearly forgot I was wearing it.
However, I don't mind my current AGV.

That's the other choice.
