Rider of the Month – Mitch McGinnis

Mitch McGinnis

Mitch is a veteran racer who has been on “hiatus” for many years and is now back in the game racing an ’08 Honda CBR1000rr on the new Michelin, Power One, motorcycle racing tires.  Mitch is racing as a Novice this year, but is leading in the points in the Formula 40 class.  This is not an average class, it is actually a very competitive class as many of the riders are similar to Mitch in that they used to race and are now, “back in the game”.

Mitch hails from Oklahoma and runs a successful business as a commercial painter.  Mitch understands the dedication and discipline required to win and much of his success in racing is a reflection of Mitch, himself.  What’s also great to know about Mitch is that he brings his family with him to the racetrack including his son, Sean, and his girlfriend, Beverly.  They are always there to support Mitch and take time out to visit with the other riders and their families.  This is a big part of the culture at the CMRA (www.cmraracing.com) where you will meet many families who are dedicated to the sport and the success of the club.

Mitch is racing in the full “racing package” offered by Komodo.  His racing leathers are the highly acclaimed K-FX race suit and his racing gloves are the K-FX model,  as well.  Mitch also wears the highly proven FX racing boot and even our CE rated back protector and Motorcycle Undersuit to assist in riding comfort and safety.  All of these racing products work together as a system that allows Mitch to stay focused and be successful on the race track.  Mitch knows that racing success requires the best products and technology including your riding gear because your safety as a rider can not be compromised if you want to win.

Komodo Gear wants to take this opportunity to introduce Mitch to our followers so you can actually see real riders racing their hearts out.  It’s a great way to get an “inside feel” for club racing and how Komodo Gear integrates into the success of the riders and their racing careers.  We want to thank Mitch and his family for believing in Komodo and giving us the opportunity to support him in his “comeback” to the top!



Motorcycle Mesh Jacket – Summer Time Is Here

Comfortable, lightweight and still have the protection you need.

The days of summer are fast approaching and that means that people are getting their bikes ready to enjoy the great riding weather.  It also means an ocean of riders just wearing t-shirts on the highways and back roads ignoring their safety because it’s hot outside.  Whoa!  You gotta be kidding me – riders choose to wear t-shirts over riding jackets because it’s hot?

That’s like saying you’re not going to wear sun block at the beach, which we know is asking for a weekend of pain!  We don’t want to sound critical, but it’s actually called poor judgment.   The benefits of a Komodo Gear motorcycle mesh jacket are many!  First, they were designed with you in mind.  They are lightweight and are also highly perforated.  This means the jackets really flow a lot of air to keep your body very cool.  The entire jacket is constructed of a highly durable Polytex Aramid that is nylon based and what most people refer to as “Polymesh” or a “mesh jacket”.   Ok, the techie stuff is out of the way.

The other key benefit to the rider is the use of CE rated armor in all the critical impact areas of the jacket.  So, this mesh jacket offers you great airflow, lightweight and also protective armor where it counts so you’re taken care of when you need it.  Remember, Komodo Gear is known for creating safe and comfortable motorcycle apparel.  We didn’t stop there, the jacket also offers traditional pockets and was designed specifically for riding in hot climates;  so you will actually wear it – and enjoy it!  The other key benefit is the cost – at $69.95 (free shipping included) to your doorstep it’s also a fantastic value because that is one of the greatest benefits of purchasing direct from the manufacturer.
