Essential features of rideing suits
I have followed the threads about which riding jacket/pants/boots are the best. Why one manufacturer's product is better than another but I have never seen a topic on which three or four features are the best or most important (vents, armor, goretex, etc.). It often looks like all riding gear is the same when you read one product review or another or one manufacturers' web sites.
Here is my problem. My wife and I (age 63) are leaving next summer on a 12-18 month tour from NE China to Baja, Mexico and we will be riding in climates ranging from reasonable cold (Moscow & Helsinki in the fall) to pretty warm (parts of the mid east in the spring/early summer). I know there is no one suit equiped to do this but what do you feel are the 3 or 4 most important features of a riding suit that we should consider? Maybe knowing these things will help us to make a more intelligent choice.
We really appreciate your help.
Jack
