Queensland did a big promotion at the beginning of the year about wearing all the right gear, yet each week I see Police Motorcyclists riding around in short sleeved shirts. What example is that setting?

It's so they can show the outlaws that they have tough tatts too.     :grin

Your link doesnt work Dave, but I think this is what you were after.

That link isn't working for me, it redirects back to the godaddy site.

Doesn't matter though, I really don't need to see it after reading Poppy Dave's quote.
That was pretty emotional stuff

I've actually been wearing the Aldi black leather jacket this week.  With the vents open it's nice and cool while moving.
And I love the smell of new leather.  It actually wafts up into the helmet while you're riding.
