A few old dogs let the cat out of the bag. Some of their equipment has a story of its own.
TF’s AXO kneeguards
“I don’t know how it happened,” thesaurused AdvRiderMag’s editor, “but I was given these kneeguards in the mid-1990s sometime. I never liked them. They were never comfortable, they make me sweat like a rapist and most of the elastic straps busted and fell off maybe 15 years ago. I don’t know why, but I’m still wearing them. Any time I’m not wearing my CTi knee braces, I still wear these poxy things. They do offer great protection, and I’m at the point where I just wear them without thinking.”
