The new Biltwell Overland Goggles have been developed for riders who are more likely to be off road on a Triumph Trophy TR6 than a modern enduro. The lenses are CNC laser cut from impact-resistant anti-fog polycarbonate, the frame is folded polyurethane, and it has laminated two-phase open-cell foam padding around eye port for comfort.
Biltwell have developed the goggles to fit perfectly with the Gringo helmet but it should work with most full face helmets – and of course it’ll work perfectly with any 3/4 face lid. Each pair of Overland Goggles comes with a clear lens and an interchangeable tinted lens, as well as 3 colour combinations.

Hikers and moto-campers both face the same basic problem – they have very little space for equipment, and any equipment they have needs to be as light as possible. The tent…

His interest in surfing and the ocean naturally led into sail boats and thus to a journey into the South Seas on a schooner shared with a few friends where he learned about sailing outrigger canoes, and learned a great deal about the sea and boats.
The Chevrolet K5 Blazer first appeared in 1969 as a competitor to the wildly successful Ford Bronco and International Harvester Scout – both vehicles are now remembered as ground breaking American 4x4s that launched the modern SUV genre along with British competition in the shape of the Land Rover and Range Rover Classic. The Chevrolet…
This is one of Steve McQueen’s own personal motorcycle helmets, adorned with his name on either side with the logo for his film company Solar Productions. Steve can be seen in very similar helmets in many of the motorcycle races he entered in-period including Bruce Brown’s iconic documentary On Any Sunday. He seemed to prefer…
The Moto Rocker was designed to be the first “motorcycle” for aspiring riders between the ages of 1.5 and 4 years. The Moto Rocker has a model engine mounted amidships that resembles a 125cc two-stroke unit, with a carburetor, exhaust, and even a unit transmission. Three major versions are offered, a Cafe Racer, Brat Racer,…
Aside from their bespoke handmade watches, my favorite thing about Bamford is the fact that they rustle the jimmies of snooty purists. At their core, Bamford is a horological blood-brother of tuning houses like BMW’s M Motorsport division and the Mercedes-Benz AMG team. Instead of cars Bamford takes wristwatches made by many of the best…
