Muddy boots, sweaty base layers and gear that’s been sitting damp in the corner… we’ve all been guilty of putting the clean-up off until later. 🏍️

In Gear Care 101, Part 4, we’re tackling boots, base layers and those not-so-fresh smells. How should you dry soaked boots? When does leather need some extra attention? And should you wash your Merino layers after every ride?

A little care after a ride can make a big difference to how long your gear stays fresh and performs as it should.

A leather jacket should look good, feel good, and move with you on the bike. The Donna ticks all three boxes. 🏍️

Designed specifically for female riders, its stretchy cow leather creates a tailored fit without sacrificing freedom of movement. The satin lining keeps things comfortable on the inside, while zippers at the hips let you adjust the fit to suit you.

Add AA certification and you’ve got a leather jacket that brings together protection, comfort, and a timeless look, ride after ride. by @rustystitches

Hora de volver a ponerse en marcha. 🏍️💨

¿Plan? Ninguno.
¿Destino? Ya veremos.
¿Depósito? Lleno.
Y a tirar millas. 😂

Después de un tiempo, no hay mejor manera de volver al camino que arrancar la moto, llenar el depósito y salir sin rumbo. A veces solo hace falta eso.

Equipado para perderme un rato:

🧥🧤👖 @rustystitches — chaqueta, guantes y pantalón
🧳 @tripmachineco — maletas y herrajes
💺 @crafton_atelier — asiento plano
📱 @quadlock — soporte móvil
🔊 @hitchcoxmotorcycles — escapes

El resto… que lo decida la carretera.

They might look like your favourite pair of everyday jeans, but motorcycle jeans deserve a little extra care. 👖🏍️

In Gear Care 101, Part 3, we’re looking at how to keep your riding jeans clean without compromising the protective materials inside. Should the armour stay in? How hot is too hot? And why should the tumble dryer be avoided?

A few simple changes to your laundry routine can help keep your jeans looking good and performing as they should.

Fall plans? Taking advantage of every sunny day we get and spending as much of it on two wheels as possible. 🍂🏍️

Looks like @arjanvandenboom has exactly the same idea.

I honestly don’t know how I used to ride my Speed Twin without these.

The @tripmachineco Expedition Saddlebags have completely changed the way I use my bike. They’re incredibly easy to fit and give me just the right amount of space for those little escapes, weekend rides and spontaneous expeditions.

Together with my @hitchcoxmotorcycles exhausts and @rustystitches gear, this is pretty much the setup I love riding with.

Simple, practical and made to be used.

At this point, I wouldn’t want to ride my Speed Twin without them. 🏍️

They call themselves Harley Sisters, but Manon and Anouk of @ironblondes aren’t actually family. For them, being 'sisters' is about something else: sharing the same passion, making each other stronger, going on adventures together and having a lot of fun along the way. 🏍️

Their routes into motorcycling couldn’t have been more different. Manon’s love of speed started young, although a serious scooter accident at sixteen put riding out of her mind for years. Eventually, the Harley bug brought it all back. She thought a Harley-Davidson might encourage her to ride a little more calmly. Her verdict now? “I ride a Harley like it’s the Ducati Panigale I wanted when I was younger, so that theory didn’t really work out.”

For Anouk, it started with constantly turning her head whenever a motorcycle passed. Eventually she wondered why she was only watching other people ride when she could simply do it herself. She started on a Triumph Trident 660, before Manon’s love for HD proved contagious. Today, she rides a Harley-Davidson Sportster Iron 1200.

Motorcycles also brought the two friends back together after they’d previously worked together. That friendship grew into IronBlondes, a place to share their adventures and encourage more women to experience motorcycling for themselves.

“We want to show that riding is for everyone.” And while Harleys are a big part of their world, the community they want to create isn’t about gender or the badge on your tank. It’s about freedom, adventure, fun and the people you meet through a shared love of motorcycles.

Rusty Stitches feels at home in their world. For Manon and Anouk, protection and personal style should always go together, especially when it comes to creating more choice for female riders.

We’re happy to have these two Harley Sisters as part of the Rusty Stitches family. 🤘 by @rustystitches

Your waterproof riding gear takes care of you in the rain, but are you taking proper care of it? 🌧️🏍️

In Gear Care 101, Part 2, we’re looking at textile motorcycle gear and the waterproof membranes hidden inside. From why regular detergent and fabric softener are a bad idea to preparing your gear for the washing machine and restoring its water-repellent finish, the right routine can make a big difference.

Because waterproof and breathable gear only keeps performing when you treat it right.

Still got a few holiday days left and looking for an excuse to get away? 🏍️🏙️

Earlier this month, we shared some inspiration for the urban riders among us. Because a motorcycle trip doesn’t always have to mean endless kilometres and remote roads. Sometimes it’s about exploring hidden neighbourhoods, finding a great coffee spot, taking the scenic route through town, and experiencing a city from the saddle.

In The Best Cities for Urban Riders, we picked three European cities where motorcycles and city life make a pretty great combination.

A day out on the bike with your favourite riding buddy, is there anything better? 🏍️

Good roads, plenty of laughs, a few stops along the way, and absolutely no rush to get home. Some rides are simply better when they’re shared.
