Details
Peter Riley of Helite Air Vest will give a presentation of air bag jackets at The Steading Bar, Hillend Edinburgh on Monday the 25th March 7.30pm . A chance to hear why an air vest may be as important as your helmet, and try on the various styles. For comfortable fit and sizing , I would advise you to bring both your usual bike jacket and helmet ( as occasionally the turtle back style can catch your helmet) See airvest.co.uk for product details.
