new suit help
Hi chaps,,

As you know I have been hoping to make my comeback at Donington this weekend.

It now looks like I'm not going to have my new suit in time.

I wondered if there was anybody about my size (probably about a uk46/48 or euro 60) with a spare suit that they'd be willing to lend me.

I can't really justify rushing out and buying one off the peg for one weekend.

thanks in 'hopeful' anticipation,

Matt.

Actually, Kev has come to the rescue again and suggested the Essex Bikers Centre, where it seems I can hire one for the weekend for £40......

so, See you all on the weekend, in my new hired leathers.....

happy days.

Thanks again Mr Ellis

Interesting Kev. I'm after a new set of leathers and the thought of try and buy sounds good.

my usual state of preparation.....

I have set of wolf leathers that size that I bought from eBay but are too long in the limbs for me. You're welcome to try those

I can't see that being a issue for Matt

Maybe the company making his new ones should knock a bit off the cost to help pay for hiring a set

I paid £60 including postage for them.

I'll bring them to Donny and you can make me an offer if you want a spare set.
