For those who "will only wear full fingered" Do you always wear a protective jacket?

Always have a helmet on?

Full face all summer.


I have been through San Francisco a few times living in N. Cali. I couldnt help but notice that in San Francisco everybody had fingerless gloves on, even dudes without bikes! Hehehehe

Default RE: gloves

When it's hot out and I'm just riding locally sometimes I don't even wear gloves... But we're talking t-shirt weather and not a long freeway trip.. Normally I wear some deerskin gloves that I bought like 4 years ago.. Love 'em. Forget who makes them, too lazy to go downstairs and check, hehe. I've tried wearing heavy gloves for when it's really cold (like under 40) but I can't feel the clutch/brake levers and I feel extremely uncoordinated with them on. I just end up pulling over and putting the deerskins back on and when my hand/s get cold I just hold one at a time on the side of the rear cylinder and they toast right up!
