i have two rides with the switchblade now and i’m actually pretty pleased. it is not as hot as it looks, the vents and channels work pretty well. i am not sure if i would like to use it on a 30 degree day but then again i am uncertain how any ride on such a day would be much fun anyway.

i also got myself a new set of goggles.the old ones were too big an clamped down on my nose. not great when you want as much air as you can get.

and my fashion adviser / model says the yellow is a better fit anyway.
