OK, so maybe I am just itching to spend my hard earned bucks... actually the bank's buck, coz I'm normally in the red by the 3rd.
My question to you dudes is: How long does your riding gear last? I've now had my helmet for a year... got it second hand with the bike and had a fall that cozed a few scratches, gloves that shows the exposed metal on the knuckles, still love my scathed 6months old M2R Rallycross jacket, my riding pants does not properly close (stud damaged in fall) anymore, boots recently replaced.
I ride just about every day (if I am at home) and although everything is still functional, it just feels time to replace a few items.
Wha da ya sa? How long does these items really last? When should one replace?
