Made my first extended ride in the rain yesterday. Rode over 200 miles in steady rain to down pours. I had just purchased a set of Frog Togg Road Toads and stayed completely dry. I'm impressed for the price. FYI

yep, they make good stuff


Always remember to be yourself. Unless you suck. Then pretend to be someone else.

I've got two pair of frog toggs. The cheapo, thinner version they sell at wally world, and a better, thicker set. I can't tell the difference for performance. The thinner set wraps in a smaller bag, but is prone to tearing. The thicker set is tougher but takes twice as much room in the saddle bags. All in all, for the very occasional times you're gonna be caught out in the rain, the cheapo ones are the way to go.

I'm a wus, my rain gear is my garage.
