For local ride:

Full face helmet.
Leather jacket.
Alpinestar boots.
Alpinestar gloves.
Jeans.

For trips:

The same plus: Bike pants.

If it's cold I gust add sweater under my jacket and warm layer under pants.

There's always one in the crowd...

Same as others:
- Warm weather = jeans, gloves, boots, helmet
- Cool weather = add jacket
- Cold weather = add better/warmer jacket & close lower vents
- Winter = bike is asleep...

"Cold" for me is 40 degrees. If the number starts with a three I'm not riding.

Holy crap man! - can you even move with all those clothes on?????
