Hey guys, I was just lookin for some opinions of vented riding gear. When i think about it it seems like a pretty good idea because alot of the time its gonna be pretty warm when your riding and I think the vented gear would really benefit you there. Also you could just put on a longsleeve under it if it gets a little bit more chilly. Im just looking for opinions on riding gear, vented and non vented, not really lookin to start a big war on what company produces the best, just lookin for opinions on vented gear. Thanks

depends on the temperature of where you're riding. up here in wisconsin, and i deffinetly know north of us, it gets chilly. during the summer vented is fine. once it starts cooling off i dont recommend it though. when you're working hard riding, workin' up a sweat, when that cold wind goes through those little holes, it's cold. vented gear is nice if it's warm out. otherwise just get non-vented gear. i don't think i even own a set of vented gear, it isn't that bad. just my opinion though

I love my Fox (HD I think) over-the-boot riding pants.. they have big vents that also have zippers on them so when it's chilly I can just close em'.

They are pretty much destroyed now thought from where they got caught on my peg under the boot and where they pipe burnt them.

All of the THOR gear is super nice, we have a co-sponsorship so all of our gear besides boots and gloves are THOR, it's nice having multiple sets of gear especially for practice and race.
