Asolo, Italy and A Coruña, Spain – Alpinestars and El Solitario announce the release of HOLD FAST: An El Solitario Adventure Concept x Alpinestars. The maverick and roamer spirit of El Solitario combined with the innovative, technical motorcycling materials of Alpinestars have resulted in the birth of a new adventure touring kit under the name MOWAT. Embodying the provocative renegade style and authentic craftsmanship of both companies, the elegance and styling of the gear compels riders to get outside and ride and take the long dreamed-of journey.
“For believe me! — the secret for harvesting from existence the greatest fruitfulness and the greatest enjoyment is: to live dangerously!”
― Nietzsche
MOWAT DRYSTAR©: SAND
“In collaborations both sides have to be open and ready for surprises. That’s when good products are born.”

HOLD FAST is to continue to believe in or adhere to an idea or principle your conscience knows to be the truth. To stand by your heart when the going gets tough and resist intimidation by outside forces. The HOLD FAST collaboration happens in an era of escalating surveillance by governmental agencies and corporations. A time of inequality and injustice worldwide. This is the reason why El Solitario turned to disruptive pattern materials and undercover secrecy for inspiration. But the function of these garments has evolved from one of combat preparedness to civilian advantage, with technical features thoughtfully designed to serve the needs of the global adventurer.

*For El Solitario, the use of camouflage is a symbol of nature and freedom, not a mean to kill other living creatures. Through the use of disruptive pattern materials, El Solitario aims to encourage people to live their dreams and share their passions in the era of prohibitions and control.

First?
Seriously son … is it really that important to you ? If so … we need to seriously work on getting you a life … a real life that is . But in the meantime … assuming no one’s been caught up in the Moderators Void … if thats what defines you for the moment … then … you’re first . As in posting here first .
Happy ?
Sigh …..
Thanks coach. I value dakar veteran opinions :p
The perfect gear …. designed by y’all … made by the perfect choice in M/C gear companies ( Alpinestar ) ….shown off in an excellent video with the perfect and absolutely apposite bike … with one seriously sexy voice shoring it all up .
Damn … with a voice like that .. I can only imagine what she looks like .
Rock On – Ride On – Remain Calm ( despite it all ) and do please .. Carry On [ my wayward sons ]
😎
Would look great under your SOA kutte-off
On a sad note . Hasta la vista H-D Sportster and Street ( across the EU ) No more doing business in India is an ominous sign as well ( the Street is 100% manufactured in India with 60-80% of all other models manufactured in India as well )
Which does not bode well for the PanAmerica which is oozing Desert Wolf DNA from stem to stern .
Hmmm … could this be the long expected demise of H-D … accelerated by their corporate cronyism with the 350 lb orangutan in the oval office ( now in the hospital ) who on every occasion has screwed H-D for their misplaced loyalty ?
Hmmm … interesting times in the world of M/C’s to be sure
But on a positive note Wolves . Three guesses which famous Galacian I just tripped over .
None other than yer Wine Wizard … Raul Perez . Damn fine wine mi amigos … ( bought and drank an Ultreia ) with many more to find their way into my home
Bda Bda Bda … thats all folks 😎
Boom! Raul Perez is a win! Crossing fingers for the MOCO. It would be very sad to see them get into deeper trouble.
SOA or kutte-off vests?
If you can’t figure it out yerself .. it ain’t with the time , effort and digital space to explain it to ya …
Thats a great come back Splinks …. for … errr … a ten year old .
Yeah Splinky Dinky … that one’s getting kind of tired , worn out and old … not to mention exposing your lack of imagination .
