Retro Motocross
« on: August 01, 2012, 09:36:48 AM »
I didn't want to call it Vintage because I didn't want to confuse anyone. I just wanted to bring up the cool fashion trends in AMA Motocross. Looks like the only fools with the flat brimmed hats turned askew are the Europeans and Aussies. We've got Alesi wearing the (very cool but way over priced) JT gear, Bubba in black, Ryan dressed like a Jockey, and by far the best retro...

Justin Barcia with that long hair and porn star mustache!

I had to call my wife to the TV to show her what late '70's and early '80's motocrossers looked like.

Hannah would be proud!

As long as white gear doesn't come back I'm OK with it.

If you don't fall off you are not going hard enough

Yamaha CT3, RT3, MX125, SC500, Toy Prius, Diesel F250 (it all balances out)

I had a white/red Hallman chest protector similar to that. I "loaned" it out a couple years ago and it has been lost since. It was cool  :D .

I'm rocking some mid nineties A* Gel tech 7's. They're comfy as hell but unfortunately they are finally falling apart. Would love to get another pair.

I've finally upgraded my 25 year old MSR underwear (although I did use a pair of Shift for 2 years) for a nice pair of Gel underwear. I don't remember the brand but they fit real nice. I can't wait to use them this weekend!

Is that TMI?
