Just kind of curious, what kind of gear is everybody wearing? I'm shopping around for stuff and I'm just interested in what works and what doesn't so... if you feel like it... let me know!

I always wear full gear, even when its 120 out. I would just pickup a motorcycle magazine and check out the adds, or better yet just go around to local places and start trying some stuff out...

Wait a sec, I'm confused.  If I'm hot, you're saying not to wear leathers? If I'm not, I need to wear leathers?  lol....meh?
