But Women do too! In fact, even more so.
For a guy, every scar is like up one level of macho-ness.

Some people say " If you're so afraid of scars, then don't ride a bike."
How retarded is that?
Riding a bike doesn't mean you have to fall and be scarred for life.
Ever heard of riding with protection? :)

Well, due to the lack of demand here in Singapore, there are very few gears for female riders/pillions in ready stock. If you want something, you'll have to place an order and it only comes in after about a month? That's a pretty long wait.
Great thanks to JR Pte Ltd, the official distributor for Dainese Singapore, I promptly got my hands on the latest GORE-TEX® Zima Women Riding Jacket, targeted and highly recommended for Touring!
It's always good to be reminded that "Safety is not an option".

What is GORE-TEX®?
It's waterproof, windproof, yet very breathable! Super.
This material is widely used in sports and outdoor clothing.
What is Mugello fabric?
High resistance to wear and tear, significantly extending the life span of the jacket and also gives the wearer a higher level of comfort with it's capacity to expand and return to it's original form.
Incorporating these two materials into constructing the jacket, we (ladies) almost have the best of both worlds ;) The jacket fits snugly yet no restriction of movement is observed.

With quite a few adjustable points, mainly the waist, upper arms and back area, the Zima jacket feels so customized.
Amours
Without needing to say, shoulder and elbow armours are compulsory to shield you from a fall.
Waterproof Pockets
Hooray! No need crumpled ziplock bags anymore, we can be assured that our passports/handphone/other valuables in there will remain dry.
Thermal Lining
The Zima jacket comes with a removable thermal lining too, for colder weather conditions.
Sleekly designed with a feminine cut yet retaining the technical protection aspects of the male jacket, the Dainese Gortex Zima Jacket ($749) makes it perfect for touring.
I wore it when I rode up to Kuala Lumpur Malaysia and through the sun, rain, winds, the jacket was everything it promised to be and touring has never been that comfortable, really. Super love it!
Definitely looking forward to my next, and next, and next next next next touring rides in confidence!
