      • Hey Guys! I have a small query. Is there a 'Joe Rocket' outlet or any outlet which sells Joe Rocket leather riding jackets in Chennai?

                @Celibrity - You contact Planet DSG @ Kochi, not sure where you're from KL. Ppl in Chennai think that riding gears are worn by morons probably!!! Not a single riding gear outlet.

                  I'm sorry, I'm from Trivandrum, Kerala. Most of KL XBHPian have a good rapport with Planet DSG @ Kochi.

                    Aargee, i beg to differ from your statement. Its impossible in Chennai to wear armoured Jacket, kneepads and commute to work owing to the prevailing weather. I dunno about others but i wouldnt want to go to my office all wrinkly and drenched in sweat at the begining of the day.

                    Coming to the business part am sure only a handful of ppl are aware of the importance of riding gear. I wear my riding gear only whem am touring, not when i am commuting. And most of the riding gear outlets dont cater for general public. Their business comes from tourers and SBKers.

                    • well zerotosixty,its not exactly impossible if you go for a mesh jacket,but otherwise,it is tough.
                      just dont forget ur helmet though

                      @celebrity: go for DSG or Cramster (bangalore)

                        Good example for what Aargee's comment.
                        Nothing offense I meant here.

                        My office is hardly 2kms from home however, still wear a jacket and gloves though not kneepads to work. Once inside the office campus, people see me coming give a strange look, but I don't care. Safety is above all.

                        Only when there is a demand for riding gears would encourage business ventures to open exclusive outlet.

                            Well, what has rapport got to so with buying riding a riding gear; you pay him, he gives you - simple.

                            Get a mesh or air flow jacket & use the leather or water proofs during winter & rain.

                            Like Adarsh says, go to Kochi, BLR, Pune or Mumbai. You can't find them in Chennai, unless I order for you here.
