When we have a new rider join our extended group of friends, we try to encourage safe riding which includes riding gear.We have a young fella who has been showing up in clothing more suited to beach visits than riding - so of course we've been getting on his case. He finally admitted all his savings went into the old used bike he purchased, and that he's legit saving up for gear.He's a really big fella, and our usual group of friends haven't been able to find anything big enough in our own closets. So, I asked a buddy on another rider website if he might have an old riding jacket that he could part with for cheap, and others chimed in with offers of good used gear - for FREE - they won't even accept shipping money.I'd be lying if I said I'm surprised, so let's be honest here - motorcyclists are the most generous people as a group that I've ever encountered. via /r/motorcycles https://www.reddit.com/r/motorcycles/comments/cb8att/shout_out_to_the_motorcycling_community/?utm_source=ifttt
