Does anyone know where I can get a fleece designed to fit over the speed hump in race leathers?
I saw them for sale a couple of years ago but can't remember who sold them. Got a couple of trackdays coming up and it ain't exactly summery yet.

One Hump or two
be interested in what you find Rob, I can't remember what I wore over my leathers at the Silverstone trackday in March last year, but as the day started with a bit of snow I defo had an extra layer on

Apparently Cold Killer Wind Buddy does, I'll confirm this when it arrives.

Rob just to clarify a point here. Is this to wear in the paddock between track outings or to have over the leathers whilst riding?

If the latter aren't you gonna look like a sheep riding around the track?.....

If you get to the front at least the rest will follow you :)

To wear on track, these are extra wind-stoppy at the front to compensate for perforated leathers

Is is really the hump in the leathers? The bells, the bells........................

It arrived today, it looked impossibly small but seemed to fit me okay.
Got into my back-protector and leathers and incredibly it still fits(hump and all)!
It's super light, thin and stretchy, even has pockets.
I'll let you know how it performs.

Just been out for a ride.
100% windproof up to the national speed limit.
Its lack of bulk means no restriction of movement.
Draw-strings at waist and neck, high neck band to keep the draughts out.

Does that mean it isn't windproof over the national speed limit, or did you just keep the speed down :)

I couldn't possibly say for sure but 'I strongly suspect it's very probably 100% windproof beyond 70mph.'
The blurb says it's water repellant too(a bit like me).

Terry if it helps, a Medium fitted over my kit.
