Now that winter is hopefully on its way out I will be looking for some spring riding gear. I notice I have much less protection on the Raptor than on my utility Quad. I am basically interested in whats working for other riders. I prefer not to spend $300.00 for gortex bibs and have them tore up by briars. Is there a lightweight waterproof flexible pant or Bib that will hold up to the snags associated with trail riding. I dont mind spending $100.00 to $150.00 thanks for any replys in advance.

I usually go to a Quality Farm and Fleet or TSC and buy a little plastic suit that goes over your clothes. they are only like $5 and are pretty disposable and have zip up jacket and every opening is elastic AND string tied so water doesn't get in.

Oneiraptor, you have never gone fast enough to get dirty, and your raptor won't spin the tires, are you looking for close to ware when you fall down getting on and off the machine??

How about some Carharts? Although they may be too hot in the summer...

Thanks Roostking, and Austin for your Ideas. Hey Pull, Whoever you are. You talk like you know me. I looked up address. You live 5.3 miles from my house per mapblast. I will be coming over to your house tonight. We will see who is slow and who is Fast. Better rest up cupcake.
