I don't know if this is just for the new people as we've already had this kind of poll...

For me it all depends on where I am and what I am doing as to how much gear I wear if any but "full gear" on the street for me is;

1. Full-face Helmet
2. Leather Jacket
3. Riding Boots
4. Riding Gloves
5. Icon Field Armor Knee Guards
6. Riding Jeans

Going on "rides" I wear full gear (I wear pads under the mx-pants), however I do commute in jeans...

My commute is in heavy traffic and 30 miles or so each way, but I still wear either an Aerostich suit, full leathers, or occasionally a JR mesh jacket and ballistic pants. The last is a rarity because I don't feel comfortable with that low level of protection.

Yup. I wear my leathers to commute in. 50 miles one way, all highway speeds. The only time I ride in jeans is around town in my small town.

I consider the 1st option "Full Gear" but I don't always go out in full gear. It's usually atleast a Jacket, Gloves, Full Face Helmet, Jeans and most of the time Shift riding shoes. But sometimes tennis shoes.

If I was at the beach cruising down the strip from a Hotel to McDonalds it wouldn't be beyond me to go out Flip Flops, no shirt, swim trunks and a Helmet.

Yea I agree with you. (BTW will everyone please quit posting this douche,ugh!) I've gone to Daytona with a "Gear-Nazi" before and had to laugh while he suffered in almost 90 deg weather doing 5 mph parade laps down and around the strip or up the beach. Shit Lollipops was about 7 blocks from the house we were renting and this mofo had us waiting while he geared up to go to the strip club! I mean more power to him but yeesh!
