I was looking for a new pair of gloves with palm sliders, and I found this.

To get on base we have to have full finger gloves, long sleeves, long pants eye protection and helmet and over the ankle foot protection. After dark we also have to have a reflective vest. This applies to anyone riding a motorcycle on a military installation.

Yep, but we have to wear the reflective vest all the time....day or night.

Since I've gotten back into two-wheeling hardcore in complementing my Spyder love affair, I'm becoming more attentive to my gear deficiencies. While I've always been ATGATT, the two areas I'm definitely improving in the near future are better boots (my TCX touring boots have been great to date, but they've grown far too flexible for two-wheeling, I'm upgrading to some Sidi racing boots as soon as I can afford to) and ensuring that all my jackets and pants zip together (modifying them at the tailor if I have to).
On the Spyder, I've been lax in those two areas, but on a motorcycle, I'm very self-conscious of how easily ankles can snap and jackets can ride up.
Safe riding, everyone!

The base CO here said it's not needed during the day. It's up to the individual commanders.

Yeah, it's prob the samd Cdr that requires me to wear so much reflective gear when I do PT that we all look like a bunch of aliens running in the dark.
