Bullitt ordered too. Looking forward to this one! Seems perfect for the climate in the swiss alps.

@Finn666:

great to see you in here Dave…really thought that someone is missing, now i know who
looking forward to this and since the Goruck-Challenge seams like it's dead, this would be a really nice alternative imo!

Ciao Rafa. Thanks, i'm really looking forward to this one.
I've got many more ideas, but it's all about where, when and how long.

The hike is a great idea!
If that happens in Switzerland i'm in. If somewhere else, i try…

The Jungfrau-Region is great. I wanted to do the "Bärentrek" this year, but that don't happend. it's a 6 day hike, but it's possible the make it in 4 days if your in real good shape, or to shorten it.

i made some parts from the "Europaweg" this year, great sights to Matterhorn, Weisshorn, etc. There are some nice cottages with beds, drinks and food.

Via cook. That should be not that heavy and allrready doable in may or june. Both other trips are better from july to september, cause of the snow and some smaller trails.

If you want to walk through a glacier, that's the one to do:

Crampons aren't necessary. I made this route twice, it's impressive. But really not that heavy like they say in the myswitzerland-link.

Or of course the region where i'm from:

And if you want a really special handmade belt, Appenzell is the place to be: http://www.appenzell-ai.ch/sennen-sattlerei.html

@ohighyo:

I wish someone tried this on me, they would quickly find out what 10 years of martial arts training can do to a few punk ass high school kids throwing blindsiders, Then we'd see who the badass is real quick like. What is wrong with kids!!

I thought the same, boxing and Krav Maga for 8 years and i'm hitting the gym since 1998… I felt pretty safe. but 6 weeks ago I was on my way home trough a small street in my hometown. 10-12 dudes (about 18 to 25 years old) came around the corner and directly confronted me, non-verbal. I tried to defense against the first two guys, then next one came from the side and hits me with his knuckle-dusters. Well, game over... I've got about 20-30 kicks on the whole body.
All-in-all i was very lucky, just a few stitches in the face. I'm surprised, it's not an easy process to handle.
Well, that was very fast wabi-sabi on my A2.

@davito:

Thx maestro will try to get some more infos about our babies, thx for sharing great stuff

Maybe a fellow forum member may shed some light on the contracts. I guess its probably Dubow but not sure

That would be very interesting, thank you 

Hey David, that anniversary tag looks nice. awesome jacket!
I made 2 quick pics from the labels on my A2.

@davito:

Leather color is diff and mine is an older anniversary version with a slightly slimmer cut than the newer ones like bullitt's as far as i understand (i wear a 40 in mine, usually i am a japanese 38 in my buco and would take a 38 in the himel Heron if i would pull) There are different patterns/contracts around in the a2's. Will bring mine on Friday so we can compare with actual cuts. Afaik there might be an older version like mine in the store in your size

Very great fit on your A2, davito! Don't tell Finn that there still is a jacket in his size in the store. He has some quick decision making skills 

I made a (bad) pic to compare these two jackets. The whole thing around A2's is like a science… I should do some research.
Btw, these are my FH3009, with a heck of a leg twist on the left.

@58panheadfan:

My Pleasure Finn666! … and of course the Heron 1929 is - together with my RMC (Joe McCoy MJ12131 Car Coat) my all-time favourite leather jacket.

The heron fits you perfectly, very nice Jacket!
We've got to show you our favourite Italian restaurant at the second anniversary party 

@Winchy:

Couldn't agree more. I often accompany a friend to the Emirates (despite being a Norwich City fan) and am always shocked at how quiet it is for a 60K capacity stadium. Although Stamford Bridge was even quieter when I went there last season; it was actually quite amazing how so many people in a space that size could make so little noise! I've been to a few games in São Paulo (at the Morumbi and Pacaembu stadiums) and the constant dancing, singing drumming etc was quite something to behold.

Hope you're enjoying being back in European competition again, despite the loss in Swansea. Hopefully you can give Valencia a beating away from home in your next fixture.

That's what i heard from some grundhopping friends too.
Sao Paulo is definately an other level than everything in western Europe, i'm jealous! One day, I want to watch a Superclassico at the Bombonera.

Thanks for you're wishes for our Valencia game. To be realistic, they're 2 numbers to big for St.Gallen. But in a Cup Game, everything is possible.
This saturday we play Basel away in a league game. It's gonna be a tough one too.
