Excellent find Larry. that Jacket is extremely simular to my Alpine Stars jacket. I just wished my jacket had vents, like my snowboard jacket does. And this Tour Master does !! haha. I like it alot. thanks.

Mesh jackets are definetly the best solution to hot weather riding. I have an AlpineStars mesh that works well and is comfortable. The problem I run into is when touring. Packing the mesh jacket is not practical. After a lot of research, I just bought a Tour Master Transition II jacket. It has lots of vents and a unique system to hold the vents open. They also come in silver which is a good reflector. $170 from NewEnough and $2 shipping. Lots of positive reviews on that jacket.
