RE: Aerostitch wallet - Nortoon_imp - 10-24-2018
A few years back an Australian member of the CB500 Forum set out on a holiday trip. When he stopped for gas and accommodation he found his wallet was no longer in his back pocket. No money for gas or a motel, and a long, long way from home.
Every since I read that, I kept my wallet zippered in the front pocket of my leather jacket. After leaving a stop I can always assure myself its still there by putting my hand on the pocket.

Nice Aerostich, grampa Ferret! Can't believe you were still walking around with a brick of old Harbor Freight coupons in your back pocket.
Constanza wallets are a thing of the past! For years I've been using [url=https://www.bigskinny.net/]Big Skinny Wallets.

Had one of these for years Ferret. Also a Stich boot wallet
Use the boot wallet on long rides

I've been a front pocket wallet guy since I had a bout of Sciatica when I had these 5 hour drives to teachers college and would visit my wife on the weekends. Front pocket wallet, always.

My wife bought me one for Christmas. I was surprised how many credit/debit, ID, medical etc. cards this wallet will hold and remains to be flat. When I go out somewhere, I always have a feeling I forgot my wallet when I actually have it in my back pocket.
You are dead-on-right about this wallet Ferret. Thanks.

I'm with Nortoon. The only place for my wallet is in the zippered pocket inside my jacket.
One day years ago I was riding far from home, and for no particular reason I reached back to check my wallet in my back pocket to find it had almost wiggled out and was ready to fly into the weeds.
No more back pocket on a bike for me!

Speaking of zippered jacket pockets, it's prudent to always carry a spare key (in your jacket or on your bike). I had to rely on my spare key once in the last 30 years and would have been totally screwed if I hadn't had it.

I never leave home without a spare ignition key.
Haven't ever needed one in 25 years, but better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it

I also have a spare key on all my bikes but do not keep it under the seat !!! (figure out why )
