Two high-mile riders meet:
Brook Dain (left) and Paul Pelland at the Aerostich store and factory in June 2022.
What do these guys have in common?
Both Brook and Paul ride a lot more than the average rider (basically every day), and they use Aerostich gear. One chooses a Vespa scooter and the other a Yamaha Super Tenere, yet it’s no coincidence both depend on Aerostich gear for its long-term value as functional equipment.
When they each rolled up here simultaneously, coming from two different directions, it was a coincidence, so we made introductions, took some photos and shared stories (and a nice lunch). Experienced high-mile riders appreciate better fitting all-day-comfortable gear that works and holds up. This means easy to use real-world-useful pockets, great functional venting and serious protection for hard rain and possible crash scenarios. Plus repair services if needed.
Brook was an Aerostich ‘Rider of the Month’ a few months ago and is on a 3,000 mile loop around the western side of America, from home to home. Paul is around the 500,000th mile of his million-mile ‘Chasing the Cure' for MS ride and stopped in because we were on his route home as well. You may have met Paul at a motorcycle event or IMS show. He suffers from MS, which is why he’s donating his life to this cause, and has been partly sponsored by both Aerostich and Yamaha. He’d also be happy to have your support.
Road directions to visit us are here. We’d love to show you around and help you examine the full selection of Aerostich gear. We have (at this moment) about 153 R-3 one piece suits in stock, and another several hundred other models of Aerostich suits, jackets and pants in the store. Suits come in more than 60 stock sizes and our fitting experts will take measurements if you require alterations or would like a sewn-to-order garment in a custom color combination. Factory tours are always free, and this (recently gentrified) neighborhood now has several nice places to eat within a block or two.
If you visit, we cannot guarantee you’ll meet riders like Brook and Paul, but we can guarantee you won’t be disappointed in the gear or our service.
