The Mad Red Motherf**ker World Tour.
-
Took ol' red to see the mountains this weekend and to get some fresh air.
This is at my in-law's place on Wataugua Lake. Right in the middle bewteen Johnson City, TN and Boone, NC. Place never gets old.

@chrisjohnnick @henry_david Where is this jacket now?? In transit?
-
@goosehd – Yes! Chris mentioned that he was posting it in short order. Stoked to enjoy the last of the chill here in San Francisco with it

Thank you for the update.
Just a reminder for those participating or those who are new to tours: This is a description of the “Triangle of Terror” tour and how it worked.
In case Americans, Brits or Germans wish to organise meet ups/in person handovers, I'm perfectly fine with small changes to the schedule within your respective countries but I ask that you do the following: Organise it amongst yourselves via PM and then let me know the plan. As long as I can see that it works out I'll make the changes here.
For those of you new to touring IH gear it’s pretty straightforward. You receive the jacket and it’s yours for about four weeks. Wear it as much as possible, and post here as much as you can. It’s as much about giving an insight into your everyday as it is about tracking the jacket evo. Towards the end of your leg, get in touch with the next member on the list and ship the jacket to them. Meet ups and in person hand-overs are great if possible. For inspiration you could do a lot worse than checking out the 888 Fatboy tour here: https://www.ironheart.co.uk/forum/index.php?topic=10586.msg514002#msg514002

Yes it's en route. Had a bit of a delay getting it out. Wanted to get a couple more wears here in Nashville, but temps have been too warm. Looking forward to seeing more of the tour, and stoked to have been a part of it!

Sup! The bud @chrisjohnnick came through and this fucker just arrived. Totally perfect fit on this one, too. I had him reroute the jacket to Texas instead of San Francisco at the last minute. Last Wednesday my dad died and I came down here to deal with all of that. I don't know how long I'll be here, but I believe the last week or two that I have this thing I'll be back in the City to take some cheesy Chinatown/Gold Gate Bridge/Painted Ladies shots, too.
Getting this in the mail has lifted my spirits a bit and I'm grateful that I was entrusted with the MRMF by y'all. I hope this missive finds you well and I'll have some updates each week as the distraction is a welcome one tbh.
Grateful for this community and for the fact that my wife absolutely loathes this jacket

…oh and that's my mom's leopard phone case as I don't have a smartphone lol.
-
And one last thing! Details:
RMC beanie with a lovely Hanes and some IH-634-XHS plus my much loved Solovair 11-eye Derby boots (and JMM of course!).
-
Perfect fit Luke. Once you get sorted and back in S.F., I bet it'll be a perfect jacket for the weird coastal weather.
-
Condolences man. At least there's the fact that the jacket looks fantastic.
-
@henry_david sorry to hear your news but glad the MRMF is providing a welcome distraction. Embrace it if that’s what you need. You will get through this.
-
Thank you all. I know that my Dad would have some opinions about it, but I know that they woulda been good. He loved red. Love him always and stoked to wear a jacket that he woulda loved to the moon and back.
-
Deepest sympathies, @henry_david

Sorry about your dad. Losing a parent is hard.
-
@sabergirl & @Sage954 – Thank you both. I just never thought this day would come for some reason?
