Message: [QUOTE="jeffd, post: 834509, member: 18789"] Basic stuff, but also important are the following items: *Bike shorts - padded seat with absorbant lining. Trust me... monkey butt is no fun. *Socks - Go get some soccer socks. They are padded, long, and absorbant. They are the same as "MX" socks, but cheaper. All the other stuff has been pretty well covered. Pants and jerseys can be had for little $$$. Just buy last year's close-outs. Your gonna thrash it anyway ;) Spend the bucks where it counts on your helmet and boots. I also don't ride without a chest protector. Many do, but I do not. Buy a couple of pairs of gloves and two sets of goggles. If you sweat you'll understand why. Cheers and have fun! [/QUOTE]
