Jacket Recommendations ??
I've been looking for a lightweight, mesh jacket, since I'll be riding during the day for work in the sweltering heat of Florida. I've narrowed it down to the FirstGear Mesh-Tex and the Teknic Supermesh. This is based on articles I've read online and what not.
Does anyone have any recommendations for a lightweight, breathable jacket ? Leather would just be too dang hot during the day. Thanks, Rich p/s: Went out for my first real ride this weekend. After about 10 miles, felt really better about being on the bike (we kind of bonded !!). After that, the next 30 miles felt really good as far as handling, braking, etc...Still need more practice, but I feel a whole lot more confident riding it now.

You really should peruse the "Safety First" forum. Specifically the threads regarding gear and/or jackets.
http://www.gz250bike.com/viewtopic.php?t=1022 http://www.gz250bike.com/viewtopic.php?t=1132 Both of these threads have covered mesh and perforated leather jackets exhaustively. Congrats on the first ride. Get gear...and quickly.
