I've been seriously considering a one piece textile suit for a good
while now and was going to pull the trigger on the Olympia Phantom next
week when the "incentive" checks come.  Well, last Friday, I found a
used Roadcrafter one piece for $200 on one of the forums I visit.  Yes,
you read that right.  I talked to the seller and got some pictures
forwarded.  It looked good, so I overnighted him a money order.  It
came today.  Holy sh.t, this thing is nearly new, but an old version
without the ballistics.  I don't care!  It's going to suit me just fine
(pun intended).  <seg>  Damn, sometimes it pays to be patient and cheap.

Sometimes? Hell it always pays to be patient and cheap. lol

Congrats on the new duds! I am sure they will be very well used (lots
of miles) by the end of the season.

I sent away for the Stich catalouge and got on their email list for
specials, customer returns etc. When I find the right suit at the
right price in my size I'll probably pull the trigger too.

Now get out and ride in the thing.

I did.  Ya gotta test this stuff.  Regularly.  <g>  I'm impressed with
it.  It looks like it will be extremely, uhhh, warm.  Looks are
deceiving.  I was damn comfy and it breathes.   Guess I'm gonna have to
invest later this year in the Gerbings pants to go with the jacket
under this thing.  Shoot me a note with your size and I'll keep an eye
open on the ADV FleaMarket.
