I need to loose about 10 lbs so I can fit back into my Draggin Jeans. I feel much better in those then regular jeans.

My policy is currently evolving. My first parking lot sessions were in a t shirt and shorts, but as I begin to buy and collect gear the safer I feel with it on.

Just picked up my jacket, so at this point I am up to jacket, gloves and a helmet. Its about to get hot as hell here in Georgia, but I plan on wearing my (leather) jacket with gloves and a helmet every time I hop on.

Full suit, gloves, boots & lid 85 % of the time....the others % is jacket, gloves, lid & boots. Road rash at 60 mph SUCKS ! I know and have the scars to prove it.
