Motorcycle Gear & Information

One of the classic traditions of Americana is the cross-country motorcycle ride. It has become a symbol of freedom and a rite of passage for many. And while some people may embrace the free-wielding spirit and go wherever the wind may take them, it’s advisable to take some time to arrange some of the details for your journey. When planning for your excursion, it can be easy to overlook some basic necessities.

As anyone who lives in the Midwest or near farmland will tell you, bugs can create a mess on windshields of highway vehicles. When you are on a motorcycle, your face often has to endure the elements as well. Be sure you are prepared with a quality motorcycle face mask to prevent arrant bugs from crashing your cross-country party.

As fall arrives, and winter hovers just around the corner, diehard bikers and racers need to protect their head, face, neck and chest from wind chill in order to stay out in the weather for long periods.  And Comfort In Action makes the Bike Pit, the Road Bandit, the St. Wind and St. Wind Plus (left) as well as the Wind Tube (right) motorcycle face masks.  The product that Comfort In Action uses to line these face masks is Windstopper Fleece, which is an all-weather material that eliminates wind chill.  It is also a water-resistant fabric, to keep motorcyclists dry.

Comfort In Action face masks are a favorite among riders who resist giving up the bike because the seasons are changing.  These wind-resistant, water-resistant articles extend the riding season far into fall and, in many locations, into winter.

If you resist putting away the bike until the snow flies, you might want to invest in a motorcycle face mask like this one manufactured for Comfort In Action.   Not only is it water-resistant, but it protects your head, face, upper chest and neck – both front and back of the neck – from wind chill.

This particular model uses a combination of a thin balaclava material over the head and a Windstopper, Coolmax fleece around the neck and chest.  These are all-weather materials that resist wind chill, cool temperatures and moisture.  If you can stay warm on your bike, you can ride longer.  If your passenger is warm on your bike, you can ride longer!
