Regarding 'rip off ' merchants here, we buy almost all of DS's motor cross and motor bike gear online from America. His first complete set of clothing and safety gear, including boots, cost less than a jersey and pants here. DH also bought 4 wheels and tyres for his old quad bike and had them shipped from the US for the same price as one wheel and tyre from the tyre place here. It just doesn't make sense, does it.
