I owned one of those Palomino Aero's in brown horse for awhile. It was a gorgeous jacket and honestly I prefer "hair on" style without the fur collar like the one on ebay right now. I wore it riding several times until one day while in downtown traffic on the bike I came rolling up behind a truck without realizing that it was a GIANT GARBAGE TRUCK dripping all kinds of Goo.... Now bear in mind when you are on your bike wearing a Grizzly Palomino and you are behind a vehicle like that and way too close for comfort while waiting for the light to change and hoping against hope that the bloody thing doesn't spray the living crap out of you it can be worrisome....
Fortunately a car came up beside me and asked if she could move in front of me so she could turn left (people are pretty easy going in Chattanooga). So being the gentleman I am I let her move right in front of me thus avoiding the spray that most definitely would have occurred had I stayed immediately behind that dripping monstrosity. Naturally nothing happened to the lady in the car and all was avoided. I chalked all of this up to riding my Harley with a Palomino Grizzly and quickly rode home and put it up on the Bay vowing to stay somewhat more subtle in my appearance from now on.
