I know it gets hot as heck in Texas in the summer - maybe not as hot as southern Nevada ("but it's a dry heat" )
What is you alls favorite jacket for riding once the temp gets north of 90 degrees?
(when I was young and dumb I rode in shorts and a tank top, no gloves and tennis shoes, but now I won't ride without at least something covering pretty much every inch of skin....)
Picked this Klim Marakeesh jacket up yesterday on clearance at my local shop - normally I won't spend this kind of coin on anything that's not leather, but I have a couple of pairs of Klim pants that I picked up secondhand off Craigslist and they really are top quality - will report on it after I get a few rides ( it's 106 already and expected to break 110 so probably won't be today). It was on the end of the clearance rack, the only one, got closer and saw it was my size, then confirmed the clearance discount and figured it had to have been put there specifically for ME to buy......
Along with great quality and fit, I like that Klim includes high quality D30 armor in their gear, including back armor (and not just a piece of styrofoam).
