Bought SIDI Adventure 2 Gore-Tex Boots

[whizzle_dizzler_imp]

All this boot talk has made me wanting some new ones... but I already have enough of them.

I fractured my right ankle exactly two months and a week ago, but fortunately I was wearing some RS Taichi short riding boots, so the damage was fairly minimal. Foot had gotten kicked off the peg by a dip, and the boot grabbed the asphalt, and got sucked between the bike and ground while dragging it in a right turn. A trip to the VA and a couple hours later, I had a "stable lateral malleolus fracture". 6 weeks later, I was back on the bike, and wearing the same boots. I really should just get a nice pair of sturdy long boots like those Sidis. I have a pair of Oxtar sport boots which I'm sure would have limited the ankle movement and prevented my injury, but they're just uncomfortable compared to all of my other shorties. I've ridden literally only once in the Oxtars in the 12 years that I've had them, but I suppose being a little uncomfortable is better than being out of commission for 6+ weeks.



Wear real boots to avoid needing to wear the one in the back lol

I am on the lookout now for something like those Sidi Adventures, keep us updated on your new kicks
